Prayers for the dying

when heart stops beating
when body gives up the ghost
out of a well worn old coat
thru the crown charka to heaven
to cosmic
back to the source of infinite love
Jesus if only we could remember
the infinite love now
the hear and now
when we are born and the moment
we leave

Dawn Chorus

While we sleep deep in our beds
the birds are welcoming the day
singing in trees a glorious song
chirping in harmony hundreds sing
it only lasts for a short while
but the splendid glory of it all
is not to be missed a life concert
not even the great masters wrote
who are these glorious creatures
singing the day awake they greet
the morning sun again a new day
they warble their heart song out
trilling they give every note room
oh to be in their choir of beauty
if only for a moment to be part
of this dawn chorus of pure delight
