John Paul Village, Heathcote,
Engadine, Sutherland Shire, Sydney
With the author of life, in silence, adore
The ebbing of life and the eternal presence
Stillness and the Cool Dull Quietness around
The serenity of the warmth inside
His presence and theirs
Those who have lived and are willing
To let go, or just getting ready.
The flow from clarity and control
To let others know better what you need
A big change, something that awaits me
The premonition for sure if not ended
Earlier in His plan,
I too shall bid goodbye
Slowly and inch by inch
A letting go
Remember those gone before:
Verzotto, Jellici, LoGroi –
Being from an Italian source
Australian beginnings here in Heathcote.
The happiness of a new beginning
And the assurance of a peaceful end
What else could one desire in life?
Deo Gratias
