When I Am Gone

One day I'll be gone, as we all have to go '
Then do not be sad or afraid, my dearest,
For I will always be around you.

You'll find me in the promise of the rainbow,
When the sun shines thru' the gloom of dismal clouds.
So don't let cherished hopes ever forsake you.

In the hazy mist on hilltops you'll catch glimpses of me,
Flitting by the moon I'll be the shining cloud you'll see,
Gathering stardust to shower blessings on you.

I'll flash by on the dazzling blue of a kingfisher's wings
To fill your heart with memories of joyful things.
So keep all sorrows at abeyance from you.

With the breeze I'll waft in thru' your window
To plant gentle, caressing kisses on your brow,
And softly whisper my true love for you.

When you lie in bed, I'll glide down a silver moonbeam,
And alight upon your tranquil lids - serenely dream.
I'll chase distressful thoughts miles away from you.

As darkness mellows into the rosy flush of dawn,
I'll smile up from crystal dewdrops on your lawn.
And cheer will adorn the new day for you.

In gleeful abandon I will chirp with the birds,
So begin each day without pain and hurts.
Let life be an endless celebration for you.

When velvet petals are kissed open by the wakening sun,
You'll see me in their tender hearts, my loved one,
I'll never ever be too far from you.
