Last Farewell

Categories: Death

The sun filters through the leaves of the birches
Whilst over the hedge from the spire of the church
The bell rings out reminding us all
That time is passing and we are mortal
That one day for us too death’s horizon
Will come into view and we will be gone
To meet our Maker, we then also could be
In the walled garden of Paradise eternally.
