To Those I Love and Those Who Love Me -

When I’m gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. I thank you for the love you each have given me, but now it’s time I travel on alone. So keep the memories within your hearts. I won’t be far away, for life goes on. So if you need me, call, and I will come, though you can’t see or touch me, I’ll be near, you’ll feel all of my love around you, soft and dear. And if you must come this way alone, I will greet you with a smile and open arms and say WELCOME HOME!
