詩意43

She died - this was the way she died

And when her breath was done

And started for the sun

Her little figure at the gate

The Angels must have spied

Since I could never find her

Upon the mortal side

她逝世於此道上

當她停止了呼吸

提起她簡單行囊

並開始走向太陽

她的微軀在門口

天使必已察覺到

因我永無發現她

在凡塵人世這邊

默想

約伯記34：15「凡有血氣的就必一同死亡；世人必仍歸塵土。」人不願意聽到死亡，因著懼怕，或因著不捨。但無可避免，不知何時何地，死就是虎視眈眈地埋伏在我們面前。試著想那死門的另一邊，唯有用信心接受上帝與天使在彼處；不然﹑死是何等悲哀！
