g_b A Thought for Sunday

[asfan]

  
A rose to the living is more than 
   Sumptuous wreaths to the dead;
In filling love’s infinite store
   A rose to the living is more-
If graciously given before the 
   Hungering spirit is fled.
A rose to the living is more than
   Sumptuous wreaths to the dead.
