"Don't Cry For Me"

"Don't Cry For Me"

If I should be called away to leave this place
Don't cry for me, walk tall with a smile upon your face
For I am on the otherside of time and heavenly grace
I have done my best to make the world more kind and I have finished this race

But take this precious moment to think of your very self today
And what you need to do with the rest of your life, what more price you have to pay
Where can you lean a hand and find something kind to say,
Help a dying world find some peace, a new road, a new desire, a new way

Focus on what wonderous deeds you can bestore on heads of children great and small
Who can you hold up and carry through, find someone to catch before they fall
Will you be there waiting by the phone when that friend in need makes a call?

Can you pick up the peices of that broken little heart
Do you know just the right thing to say when life has torn them all apart
Will you yourself be able to with stand lifes evil fiery darts?

So if I should leave this place before you think it's my time
Dont waste one moment feeling sorry for me, or solutions trying to find.
But look for your destiny, your place, your purpose in life divine.

For life is way to short to spend wondering why you never found away
To help someone make it through a hard day.
To get down on your knees and unselfishly begin to pray.
Or wonder why I had to go, and if I could, would I want to stay.

I don't think so
but I do know,
I won't worry about if I am missed,
and on the otherside,
that there has to be something better than this.

I think I've said it before, but I'll say it again...

Death sucks (or is it war?)... but surviving is sometimes worse. It's hard losing a loved one.

Sharon, this holds a lot of faith and warmth, even though it's based on a sad thought....
A good one to ponder and remember!

Sharon, I read this at 5am and it was the first thing I read today before I gotta go to work. Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem with us, the images it inspires coupled with the message/advice that is within shall make my day less boring as I think about it.

Well Done!
