When we shall ascend
And it shall come to pass
That we shall walk the earthly ways no more~~
We shall lay down the forms you touched,
And dwell in fairer forms in lands beyond the mists..
Lest you should think we shall forget
That once we knew this darknesess you sometimes know.
Remember this~~It is not so.
Though lighter than the thistledown,
We shall be more enduring than the stars~~
And when the shadows come we'll not be far
From the fingertips of your mind
Whispering a dream of love.
In moments when the stillness falls,
Listen for the mists to part~~
We shall be melting in the moondrops of your meditations
While we write our names on the leaves of your heart.
We shall slip into your heartaches like a sigh slips into the ethers of dissolving smoke rings~~
We shall be shadow~sharing all your joys and fears and castle-dreaming.
The seasons come, the seasons go,
But we shall constant be and true,
because, beloved child of light,
We loved you better
Than you knew.
~The Chaneys~
