  • Wow, thank you very much.

    • Hi David,
      Maybe if you tried the net and ask for poetry there, sometimes you find something just the way you wanted to say it..
      I am sure you will find something you will be happy to read.

      I specifically like the Irish writer John O'Donohue.
      He is a deep. thoughtful and compassionate writer and writes the most wonderful and sensitive stories and poems.
      He wrote 'Anam Cara' and also 'Benedictus' is absolutely amazing I just love and smile and cry when I read his work. Have a look at his books in most larger bookshops I would think.


      For Absence

      May you know that absence is alive with hidden presence,
      that nothing is ever lost or forgotten.

      May the absences in your life grow full of eternal echo.

      May you sense around you the secret Elsewhere
      Where the presences that have left you dwell.

      May you be generous in your embrace of loss.

      May the sore well of grief turn into a seamless flow of presence.

      May your compassion reach out to the ones we never hear from.

      May you have the courage to speak for the excluded ones.

      May you become the gracious and compassionate subject of your own life.

      May you not disrespect your mystery through brittle words or false belonging.

      May you be embraced by God in whom dawn and twilight are one.

      May your longing inhabit its dreams within the Great Belonging.

      John O'Donahue


      Blessings to you David Martin!
  • Sorry can't help you there, i never visit tombs and if i did the speach should come from myself. It is also diff to write something if you do not know the man. But me being me, and if i had to speak i would probable talk about everything he is doing now instead of what he was doing when on the planet...:)) Never mind people think i am nuts.
