I am part of the deep and beautiful ocean,
the waves and the tides, true life in motion.
My soul is in the ever-changing seas,
I am part of the mist that blows in the breeze.

I am in the calm, I am part of the storm,
I am in the sun-rays, so golden and warm.
I am all around you, I am still here,
When you feel alone, please know I am near.

Love is eternal, a light that’s not gone.
In the stillness you’ll hear me, I’ll whisper my song.
When you feel the pain, because your heart grieves,
Please know I am not lost, I am part of the seas.

XxxxxX

The Lord is my pilot
I shall not drift
He has prepared a harbour before me
and I shall nest in the port forever

Thank you for the memories and for having the friendship over the years we knew you

With fondest love
