To Those I Love (by Isla Paschal Richardson)
If I should ever leave you whom I love,
To go along the silent way,
grieve not,
Nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk
Of me as if I were beside you there.
(I’d come – I’d come, could I but find a way!
But would not tears and grief be barriers?)
And when you hear a song or
see a bird I loved,
please do not let the thought of me be sad…
For I am loving you just as I always have…
You were so good to me!
There are so many things to say to you…
Remember that I did not fear…
It was just leaving you that was so hard to face…
We cannot see beyond…
But that I know:
I loved you so – ’twas heaven
here with you!
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Lippa Catherine Ellen October 29 1953..
