Say This:

Our journeys begin with a life giving spark,

from the truth's that abide as a Sun through the dark.Discerning creation and flow of it all,lamenting the loss if one cherished should fall.

Not knowing what blessing

in being, bestowed,

from the start of each journey

the Truth sought each load.Assuring what's found at the end of each road.

Is the essence of Truth,

that will comfort and care.

With a Love that's

forever,and a Joy to compareGod Bless,

ABLED1

"I just want you to know that I really appreciate our friendship and I'm here to help you any way I can. Can I treat you to your favorite dessert?"

...and then listen...with all your heart.

I've been around a few terminally ill folks and in my estimation none of them wanted to hear depressing poems. Leave those for the wake.

I think MiamiDavid said it pretty much like it is.
