Remembrance
Will You remember
When I hailed my Father
I hailed You?
Will You remember
When my bones lie
Beneath the Tree
The life I led?
Will You remember
My words, my Work
The honor I tried to live my life by?
When this world forgets me
Will You remember me?
How I asked Your Wife
If I could hold the bowl
And within moment my arms shook
With its weight?
How I looked upon You
In the cave so tightly bound
Arms shaking with the bowl
But could not release You from Your pain?
How, when I was brought low
You did not burn me, despite Your righteous anger
But saw something in me I did not
And set light to a new path?
I pray You remember me
That the memories are fond
That my words, my Work, my path
Honored You
That I am worthy,
When the memories of my life have all but guttered
Of a single ember
In Your memory
