"Death is the beginning of life as life is the beginning of death ..."
Paul H. Yarbrough
**************************************************************
When the Bell will Chime for me
When the bell will chime for me to depart
I shall greet my journey with smiles on my face
With the fairest flame of faith in my heart
With a plea to shower on me His grace
With prayers, vigour to me to impart,
Yearning for the divine shrine to embrace
Imploring the Lord to pilot my flight
To the distant realm that is ever bright.
When the bell will chime for me for last time
Let no tears drip from eyes of close of kin
But their cheeks glow with rays of sunshine,
Let no sadness on their forehead be seen
But their lips effuse words of divine hymns:
Death is not end but source where new life springs--
For some it is freedom from illusion
And search for divine unification.
