And peace came to her as she closed her eyes for the last time. Peace in communicating with those beautiful birch trees that she loved once again.<br />The words and meaning in this beautiful post is sweet like a quiet cool stream sending comfort on a hot day.<br />The poem touched me.Tweedles -- that's mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01349728497621875670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1496213195434238095.post-38793053885923059182012-08-16T11:40:01.912-07:002012-08-16T11:40:01.912-07:00Yup.

May you all find joy in knowing she lived a good life! <br />Can you still recite it from memory? Sometimes it's like a mantra for me. It has stuck with me every since Mrs' Winters demanded that we memorize it. I have always found it comforting and a call to live my best life.
