Prayer

When the earth is still to me
and soul and body  have parted.
All the joys and gaiety
of this world now unheard.

Gentle breezes now pass me by.
laughter and life slip silently away
from my deafened ears

Let me find a place in eternity.
A quiet place
where streams babble
and the trees whisper
in soft fragrant winds.

Let me find
in my tranquil forever.
Memories of us together
of what was you and me.

 If such dreams are allowed
let me dream of you.
by my side
for all eternity.
