all souls day

 

All Souls Day

The remembering of departed souls

Floating in our memories

Remembering the times of their lives


Words spoken, heard and remembered

But the years may have forgotten the words

But the wisdom will be carried on every day

Faces can be remembered but silence prevails


All Souls Day

The footprints of their lives

We heard their stories

The way their lives might have been


How they struggle to earn their living

How they show their sacrifices with smiles

Only at their quiet corner they might cry

Of their lives struggling to meet each day


Now the candles light up

Telling them we still remember

All those years have gone

We can't forget our loved ones


The candles show the pathways

Of a time we knew and words forgotten

Watching the wind flickering the candles

We imagine they come to say hello
