"Life well spent is long." -- Leonardo da Vinci

Answer 2

im so sorry about ur lose.

here r some poems i found. hope it helps.

Death is not the end

Death can never be the end.

Death is the road.

Life is the traveller.

The Soul is the Guide

2nd one

Our mind thinks of death.

Our heart thinks of life

Our soul thinks of Immortality.

    Tie the strings to my life, my Lord,

    Then I am ready to go!

    Just a look at the horses --

    Rapid! That will do!

    Put me in on the firmest side,

    So I shall never fall;

    For we must ride to the Judgment,

    And it's partly down hill.

    But never I mind the bridges,

    And never I mind the sea;

    Held fast in everlasting race

    By my own choice and thee.

    Good-by to the life I used to live,

    And the world I used to know;

    And kiss the hills for me, just once;

    Now I am ready to go!

Answer 5

My deepest sympathy for your loss. THese may not be what you are looking for, but if you want to use any, it would be an honor and pleasure.

Walk With Me

Walk With Me

What started on our first day

Will stay to the last

Walk With Me

Feel the wind upon your face

No urgency now

A gentle pace

Walk With Me

Along the beach

With golden sand beneath our feet

As the sun dips into the sea

Tears well

Emotions deep

Breathtaking, unable to speak

Walk With Me

Among the trees

The rustle of leaves

The groan of limbs

As wind swirls

Squirrels scurry for protection

Loving arms hold you near

Until an unwelcome presence passes

Away from here

Walk With Me

Through valleys lush and green

Crested by majestic peaks

Covered with ice and snow

A final journey for the weak

A comfort for us below

Walk With Me

As we have

Your hand in mine

Forever through the span of time

______________________________________...

For One Hour

If I had only one hour with you,

I would ask that hour be in God's own time,

one hour, a lifetime, every second

an expression of love,

every moment a new adventure.

Sixty minutes to slowly pass

with you at my side,

a never-ending dream,

always giving thanks,

one hour with you,

would be for eternity.

What greater honor, that when a man moves forward,

he leaves behind in each of us

the best of what he was.
