I know that no matter what
You will always be with us.
When life separates us
I know it is only your soul
Saying goodbye to your body
But your spirit will be with us always.
When I see a bird chirping on a nearby branch,
I know it is you singing to me.
When a butterfly brushes gently by me so care freely,
I know it is you assuring me you are free from pain.
When the gentle fragrance of a flower catches my attention,
I know it is you reminding me
To appreciate the simple things in life.
When the sun shining through my window awakens me,
I will feel the warmth of your love.
When I hear the rain pitter patter against my window sill,
I hear your words of wisdom:
Without rain trees cannot grow;
Without rain flowers cannot bloom;
Without life’s challenges we cannot grow strong.
No matter where we are
Your spirit will be beside us
For I know that no matter what
You will always be with us.
