BLESSING LESSON 101                        

Come on class, let’s gather
 'round for our daily lesson
The subject is Life
and you will be taught
each day has it’s blessing

You will also learn,
that all things happen
for a reason
 try to understand
life changes like
the seasons

Copper leaves fall
strife drops its ball
God calls our loved ones home
angelic souls overcome
us, like waves
of ocean foam

We must remember loved
ones, as they are alive and well
That’s the way their
spirits live, the sick body
was merely a shell

 Their spirits soar and visit
to make sure we are good
Reminding us to
 embrace each day
living as we should

Though we grieve and miss
them  much, and yearn for
their tingling touch
We must let go in time,
releasing our mourning crutch

So class, you are dismissed
now, go on about your day
Feeling close to loved
ones, who are never far away
