REFLECTIONS

a poem by a special UU minister who died recently
- he

was a published poet, the Rev. Rudy Nemser.

The friendship we share this day is sacred.
All gatherings when people meet and touch,
celebrate life.
The laughter we share this day is sacred.
Joy and sorrow that rise from love
are springs of life.
The stillness we share this day is sacred.
In this peace is a haven for the spirit
that nurtures life.
For friends, for joy and sorrow, for the comfort of quietness,
let us ever be grateful and caring.
