Some souls pass through
this lifetime
like a gentle summer rain,
They touch our hearts
and then return
to heaven once again.
Even as we mourn this loss,
we know within our hearts
that those we love are never really gone,
For even as this earthly life
comes to its season's end,
the soul goes forth
and lightly journeys on.
