Goodbye to my Beloved Aunt



Goodbye to my Beloved Aunt

Tell me how you are?
Share if you can what it is like when one crosses-over.
Let the wind be your words.
The sun be your arms.
Leaves that blow can be your happiness,
and raindrops; the tears,
Show me what your Heaven's like,
please, dismiss my fears.
As you always found the words to simplify what’s life,
When you were here.
I miss you, my beloved aunt
the way your eyes reflected Love.
I love your, gentle smile.
You will be missed but never forgotten.
Before I leave, your grave today
I'll kiss your grave stone,
like I use to kiss your cheek.
Although my farewell is intended for your physical
Body. There are spiritual pieces of you within me that we always remain.
