ABSENT BRETHREN
	Spirit Of Truth, before we homeward wend, On Thee we call; Assist us each to succour and defend. Good Brethren all. From cares and sorrows, Absent  Brethren free, Where'er they roam, in Air, on Land, or Sea. Let Thy kind Spirit hover round them now, And so enthral; That they will keep their Obligation Vow, So say we all. And when on us the Ivy leaves descend, Grant we may join Thy link, our Brother's Friend.

POEM Written by David Harkins - Silloth, Cumbria, Uk 

HE IS GONE

You can shed tears that he is gone
Or you can smile because he has lived.

You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left.

Your heart can be empty because you can't see him
Or you can be full of the love that you shared.

You can turn your back  on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.

You can remember him  and only that he has gone
Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what he would want: smile open your eyes, love and go on.
