A spot just perfect
Sitting on a hill
So I can watch over all those I came to love
A view of the skyline
Surrounded by a lively garden
Only the sound of the birds and insects
And the voices of my visitors
I will remain here silently
Watching you
Remembering you
As you honor me
and remember me
As you have pride in me
I have pride in you
I hope I’ve left a mark
Both in your heart and on your heart
My only hope is that years from now
All I’ve done
And all I was
Will carry on
And inspire others
To continue
What I can no longer do
While I lay here
In my final resting place

Final Resting Place©
was written in memory of the late and great Nelson Mandela
There is no way to capture all that he was, all that he did and all that he leaves behind
I am however certain, that no matter where he is, he will always know that he was loved and admired by many.
Carry on Nelson Mandela. You will be forever a part of us all.
