Silently the world listened to clatter of horses hooves,
the marching of soldiers...
smelled the freshness of the lilies placed upon your chest
as you passed slowly by--
We wept and prayed a silent prayer...
and in those prayers, we thanked our God
for giving you to us however brief your time--
For your touch, knew no boundaries...
your smile knew no language--
If one could put a face on selfless love...
it was reflected in your shy blue eyes,
heard in your voice, felt in your touch...
and carried in your heart--
If there is a lesson to be remembered--
it is to give of ourselves...
To give of ourselves unconditionally...
to whomever is in need, no matter what the cause--
You have shown us throught the life you lived...
one who helps a single soul, helps the world in time--
If there is one joyful thought today--
how fitting it is that the Princess of the People,
Queen of Hearts, now sits with the Prince of Peace,
King of Kings--
Your example, will always life in our hearts,
be with us in our thoughts...
may they always be carried out in our actions--
May God bless the world as you smile down upon us today...
and every day of our earthly existence.
