Remember Me

 Remember Me ~by Margaret Mead

To the living, I am gone,

To the sorrowful, I will never return,

To the angry, I was cheated,

But to the happy, I am at peace,

And to the faithful, I have never left.

I cannot speak, but I can listen.

I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.

So as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful

sea - remember me.

As you look in awe at a mighty forest and its

grand majesty - remember me.

As you look upon a flower and admire its

simplicity - remember me.

Remember me in your heart,

Your thoughts, and your memories

Of the times we loved,

The times we cried, the times we fought,

The times we laughed.

For if you always think of me, I will never have

gone.
