The Spirit lives on
Death cannot take loved ones,
Away from us,
Their deeds, their looks,
Their words of endearment,
Lives on, moves on,
Though they are absent,
In flesh and blood;
Lives on earth may go out,
And come in,
They take several forms,
Through generations,
They make us feel ,
Safe and happy,
To keep our faith in humanity.
