Saturday is here again,
Find your funeral attire
And wear to attend
Many that have left us
Take their final journey today
Towards and beyound
Earth opens its bosom to take back
That which she gave so free,
But on time limit, to expire.
Feel a sense of humility
As u bare witness,
Put into context ur troubles today.
Appreciate the blessing
Of being alive,
As alive you are today
To feel, to touch, to smell, to smile,
To cry, to laugh, to yawn, to yell,
To sing, to talk, to whisper, to blink
And for all that you have
Taken so much for granted
For being about, as alive today
Grab some sand
And throw it down the grave,
Dust to dust, ashes to ashes
Here we part ways,
To be only held in memories
Of the living
Do not show your face here again
No ghost in form is invited to be
In this realm, not to be
No pride made it past ur last breath
Allow the winds to take
That which the soil left behind
Be light past a feather's weight
Ascend to life beyound and stay
Only as reincarnation return
Send our greetings
To those that went before
Be at peace, rest in peace.
To the departed
