Just heard of your loss. My deepest condolences to you. Here is a poem I wrote a while back that may give you a measure of comfort.



VOICES IN THE LIGHT

Sometimes voices
in the light
will call me back to them.


Back out of this
place where
I have spoken from.


And then I will turn my
back on you,
and on the storm-bled sea.


And even
on the sleeping faces
that will never wake for me.


I will find myself
expanded
out of limitations plight.


And no earthly cause
or battle
will keep me in this fight.


And what will seem like
nothingness to
those that have remained

to me will seem like
childhood
when in the time of May.

 

I'm sorry that I don't have enough English ability to express my feeling.


But all of us will stay with you , Del.

 

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, Del.


Wonderful photograph.


My thought are with you.

Our death is our wedding with eternity.

What is the secret? "God is One.
"

The sunlight splits when entering the windows of the house.

This multiplicity exists in the cluster of grapes
It is not in the juice made from the grapes.


For he who is living in the Light of God,
The death of the carnal soul is a blessing.


Regarding him, say neither bad nor good,
For he is gone beyond the good and the bad.


Fix your eyes on God and do not talk about what is invisible,
So that he may place another look in your eyes.


It is in the vision of the physical eyes
That no invisible or secret thing exists.


But when the eye is turned toward the Light of God
What thing could remain hidden under such a Light?

Although all lights emanate from the Divine Light
Don't call all these lights "the Light of God"

It is the eternal light which is the Light of God,
The ephemeral light is an attribute of the body and the flesh.


...Oh God who gives the grace of vision!
The bird of vision is flying towards You with the wings of desire.

Oh, Del - just read your blog.

So sorry to hear this.
But Bert lives in YOUR heart forever and in the big sky!
Look to the light and treasure your best memories.

They will always make you smile :)

With love, Nat

So sorry for your loss Del, but do remember that just because you cannot physically see him, his spirit lives on and he IS still around you - maybe you have felt this already?
with love and peace to you and your brother,
Sally xx
 

Love is too small a word...
 

peaceful vegan vibrations from a garden of tranquility...
