I have been asked to write an obituary for a close friend. I’m struggling to find words that capture the beauty of her life.

When I die, when I am gone,
In other worlds, I will sing my song.
From cloud to cloud, I will leap,
I’ll come to visit, in your sleep.
Listen to the passing breeze,
The way the leaves dance in the trees.
I’ll always be somewhere near,
In your laughter, in your tears.
When I die and I am gone,
In other worlds, I will sing my song.
Please do not cry, please do not grieve,
It simply was my time to leave.
