Today’s blessing is dedicated to Michael Jackson. Farewell, Michael…may you finally rest in  peace.

Into the Mist and Mystery

As rain falls on the forest ground,
As rivers run ’til the sea is found,
As grasses grow and birds abound,
Our dear one has departed this earthly round.

Give thanks for the life he lived so full.
Give thanks for his love and care.
Give thanks for the time he gave us, too,
And the beauty of the world he shared.

Farewell our friend, we loved you so.
Into the mist and mystery you go.
And we will wait as all renews,
And see you again in the morning dew.

~ Rev. John C. Robinson, Ph.D., D.Min
