No. 29 - So Still

And here lies a full heart

Do not disturb

Its gentle rest,

For peace has come upon it

Such as any man be blessed.

None can choose

When made a visit

By this unexpected guest.

Oh how few

Are receptive

To its knock upon their chest.

‘Tis not the end but a beginning

Which we do confess.

So still

So still

So still my heart

And be inspired yet

To count your days all the more

When they are numbered less.
