Greener

You say
Life’s in the details
In pictures and stories
It’s temporary

You say
Find ways you can love
With people around you
Pets & plants too

Now
You’ve gone away
No more you can say

I hope the
Grass is greener
Love is sweeter
Than pie
On the other side

I hope the
Warm wind blows
The smell of roses
Where you are
Beyond the stars

Greener

You say
Be kind to yourself
As well as to others
Your sisters and brothers

You say
Thank you my body
For taking me this far
Before you went away
That’s the last thing you say

I hope the
Grass is greener
Love is sweeter
Than pie
On the other side

I hope the
Warm wind blows
The smell of roses
Where you are
Beyond the stars

The sky turned blue to gold
Family made a toast
Just right then
A song came on
Sang “Hello from the other side”

I hope the
Grass is greener
Love is sweeter
Than pie
On the other side

I hope the
Warm wind blows
The smell of roses
Where you are
Beyond the stars

Greener…
