A Life Fulfilled

A Life Fulfilled

When I die
I want to go
Gracefully like
An autumn leaf

I will not cling desperately
To a barren tree
But leave this life
Light-hearted and free

Looking back at a lifetime
Full of compassion
Full of kindness
Full of love

Finally I let go of
And dance in elegant circles
Towards the soil of Mother Earth
Carried by a soft breeze of wind

In all my beauty
In all my colors
In all my light
In all my brilliance
