two funerals – June 5

6.5.2015

two funerals

four families

age being

no barrier

to lives

passing on

 

we gather

in church

telling stories

from Jesus

and stories

from lifetimes

that mean

that we care

 

we gather

and notice

we gather

and mark well

the passing

of strangers

and friends

whom we’ve

shared.
