If I Die Today

If I die today, I would want the birds to sing for me. Let the white butterflies pave my way. If today I could no longer whisper, Just let the winds do, But never let the rains whimper. If now is over Don't let my smiles be through, But allow my laughter to stay forever. And if at this moment I am meant to stop, Never will my heart mourn my death For my soul will be alive and won't even nap.

Beautiful work Karen! I also feel the same about not mourning for your death for indeed there is a place there for us where our souls will live forever.

Karen, The moment that you know you are not afraid to die is the moment that you begin to know how to live.
