 Re: cool pagan-like poems appropriate for parents funeral 14 messages | Select a forum: |
| Sorry to hear about your mum. I've got a couple of photos of my parents (they died years ago now), framed together with this poem, which gives me comfort. It's by a wartime poet called Seigfried Sassoon. "I Shall Find You In the grey summer garden I shall find you with day-break and the morning hills behind you, there will be rain-wet roses; stir of wings; and down the wood a thrush that wakes and sings. Nor from the past you'll come, but from that deep where beauty murmurs to the soul asleep: and I shall know the sense of life re-born from dreams into the mystery of morn where gloom and brightness meet. And standing there till that calm song is done, at last we'll share the league-spread, quiring symphonies that are joy in the world, and peace, and dawn's one star."
