Hospice Heart

When spring begins to warm the ground,
the silence hums, a sacred sound.
A breeze— a breath-not gone, but passed
from form to form, too pure to last.

They are not lost. They are the flame
that flickers on without a name.
They drink from stars we cannot see,
and whisper through the willow tree.

Do not say gone. Say turned to light.
Say entered sky, became the night.
Their love remains, a song, a thread -
no soul is ever truly shed.

Here in this place, where flowers rise,
they live in hearts, in tears, in skies.
And Hospice - like a lantern - glows
with all the light their presence knows.
