The Day Of The Dead

On the Day of the Dead

Folks celebrate the lives of those who who live in Spirit 

 

We remember their stories and their smiles

We honor their souls with rose petals and prayers

 

We welcome them back to our homes and our hearts

 

On the Day of the Dead

We do not fear death or mourn the loss

We embrace the cycle of life and death

 

The cycle of love

 

We acknowledge the rainbows between the living and the dead

We rejoice in the eternal bond of love, memory 

And spiritual presence 

 

On the Day of the Dead

We are not alone or sad

We are surrounded by family and friends

We are part of a rich and colorful tradition

We are alive and grateful for each moment

 

The day of the dead

Is everyday

 

Singing in our souls 

And reclining laughing

Sun
