Sometimes people have to die
Sometimes people just move on
when they know that they are ready

Nobody is perfect
that is why we are human
We were made to fall
so that we can grow
in Mother’s fertile soil

It is our ability
to absorb her love that counts
It is our desire to evolve
which makes us look beyond

It is the knowledge of the soul
which makes us grow higher
Seeking out the truth

It is the joy
of seeing Mother’s caring smile
which makes us want to give the love received
