Our Beloved



Of Death

And what is to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its rest­
less tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?
Only when you drink form the river of silence
shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountain top,
then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs,
then shall you truly dance.

from: The Prophet Kahill Gibran
