THE OTHER SIDE OF GRIEF

 When we experience grief…which we all will…someday

when we think about our loss…when we stop to pray


may however we choose to pray…whatever words…whatever prayer

be carried upon the wings of eagles high into the air…


may they soar into the clouds…high beyond the sky so blue

and fall softly on whatever great spirit you happen to be praying to.


May we be blessed to embrace this Native Americans belief

of how there will always be another side of grief.


the side where our love never softens

where our tears of sadness still flow…just not as often…


where…when we visit our memories…after a while

they still bring a bit of sadness but also a few more smiles.


The side where we once again look forward to tomorrow….

where joy and peace are present…with just a hint of sorrow.
