Requiem

[shakatany]

In memory of Nan Dibble, Octavia Butler, Dana Reeve and others who have passed on I'm posting the funeral service of the Lovingkindness Church from Native Tongue by Suzette Haden Elgin aka ozarque.

"You go from us
into a new becoming;
we rejoice for you and wish you an easy journey
into the Light.


The winds will speak to us of you,
the waters will mention your name;
snow and rain and fog,
first light and last light,
all will remind us that you had
a certain way of being
that was dear to us.


You go back to the land you came from
and on beyond.
We will watch for you,
from Time to Time.
Amen."
