If a tiny baby could think, She would be afraid of birth. To leave the only world she has known Would seem like a kind of death. But immediately after birth, the child Would find herself in loving arms, Showered with affection and cared for At every moment. Passing through death is really A birth into a new and better world. Those who are left behind should not grieve As if there was no hope. Our loved ones live on in a world Beautiful beyond anything we can imagine. There they wait until the day comes When they will welcome us with joy. |
