To Those I Love 
If I should ever leave you whom I love 
To go along the silent way, grieve not, 
Nor speak of me with tears, hut laugh and talk 
Of me as if I were beside you there. 
(Id come - Id come, could I hut find a way! 
But would not tears and grief be harriers?) 
And when you hear a song or see a bird 
I loved, please do not let the thought of me 
Be sad . . . for I am loving you just as I always have: _ 
You were so good to me! there are so many things 
I wanted still to do - so many things to say to you . . . 
Remember that I did not fear ... it was just leaving you 
That was so hard to face ... we cannot see beyond . . . 
But this I know: I loved you so 
Twas heaven here with you!
