My soul is as wide as the world is tall.
I have gone to answer the call, the call
Of the One who takes care of us all.
Wherever you look, you will find me there-
In the heart of a rose,
In the heart of a prayer.
On butterflies' wings, on wings of my own,
To you, I'm gone,
But I'm never alone-
I am home
Linda was a wonderful person and a great friend,I will always cherish my memories of her.
My prayers and thoughts are with all of you at this most difficult time.
