Poem: If I Should Die Today by Andrea Hope
I will not tell you to be happy
For grief, at times, must reign
But if you shed warm tears of mourning
Pray not shed them for my sake

I have known the love of many
I have lived for love of One
When the Ancient Beauty summons
On the windsongs, I will come

No, the time was not too short
For both blood and ink to flow
Other worlds beckon for poets
Who am I to tell them no?
