IN MEMORY OF ALMA AND TRISH

I didn't know Alma but I did know Trish - both of whom passed away recently.  This beautiful honeysuckle flower is for them.

You can shed tears that she is gone
     or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes 
     and pray that she will come back
          or you can open your eyes 
               and see all she’s left
Your heart can be empty 
     because you can't see her
          or you can be full of the love 
               that you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow 
     and live yesterday
          or you can be happy for tomorrow 
               because of yesterday
You can remember her and 
     only that she’s gone
          or you can cherish her memory 
               and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind, 
     be empty and turn your back -
          or you can do what she’d want:
Smile, 
     open your eyes, 
          love and go on.
