Sad News Re Member Froggie

Poem by Henry Scott Holland

Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?

I am but waiting for you.
For an interval.
Somewhere. Very near.
Just around the corner.

All is well.

Nothing is past; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before only better, infinitely happier and forever we will all be one together with Christ.
 
Froggie had been on my mind for a long while. I was relieved to see her post in the fall. Thanks KP for relaying the news... for those of us who knew and missed her but did not have contact with her off the forum.

My condolences to you and her family KP... soothing to know you both had a cuppa together and that you both had time together to share each day. What a blessing.

I'd been concerned for a good while, but didn't particularly know who to ask.
