Serenity
By Eileen Ramage 1996.

 

The quiet serenity I feel

No more pain or fear

Though my heart no longer beats

For a time I will stay near.

 

I leave to you my music

The most perfect part of me

The gift I want from you

Is to now let me go free.

 

I will then take with me

The love you had to give

Heartfelt moments we shared

These joys I will relive

 

You are all so much greater

Than mere words can ever tell

You must pursue your passions

On sad memories do not dwell

 

The life you have within

Can reach out and touch the stars

The love and joy you can create

Could reach Jupiter and Mars!

 

I now smile and glow

Intense love in your direction

Family and friends are there for you

Let's make this a celebration!
