A Life of Kindness Poem Verses

Let us gather in the sunlight, and celebrate,
The life of the neighbour, whose love was innate,
Through the pain and the sorrow, their love we'll see,
A testament of strength, a love that'll forever be.

We'll share the stories, the laughter and tears,
The memories we made, throughout the years,
A life well-lived, a love so strong,
In our hearts, dear neighbour, you'll always belong.

In the dawn's embrace, and the twilight's caress,
We'll celebrate your life, your fearlessness,
A life of kindness, a memory that stays,
In our hearts, dear neighbour, you'll forever blaze.
