New Life, by Annie Frame.

When my life is over, and my jobs are done.
I know there is a place for me, behind the shining sun.
I'll float across the midnight sky, and dance around a star,
yet stay so close beside you, "I haven't traveled far."
I've lost the shell I lived in, yet still remain the same,
every moment passing, a loving strength I gain.
Like a new born baby, fresh and bright and new,
yet every ounce of knowledge, I've taken with me too!
I stand beside you strongly, each and every day,
watching you, guiding you, in a different way.
Just because I'm out of sight, does not mean I'm gone,
we never see the wind that blows and yet we hear his song.
