Welcome back to White Rose of Avalon, my Darlings.   For today’s blog post, I am sharing a poem about grieving.

Mournful Cries & Remembering Love

by Maranda Wabik

The Mournful Cries are wiped with sighs

A sorrowful day indeed

When we must pay heed to those no longer here

A long goodbye for the lost loved one

A tearful song played all along

The ending is the beginning of the grief

Oh, it will take time to find relief

Mourning is for the living

A time to remember the dead

However, we know that they have been released

The suffering of the mortal coil is over

The dead are with other lost loved ones

While we may miss them, we know they are better off

So, with the Mournful Cries

We remember love

We remember the happy times

And soon our tears will be in joy 

Joy for the time we spent with them

Joy for the memories made

And most importantly

Joy for the Soul Released from Suffering!
