Another shore

Life is beautiful and fragile

like a dewdrop on a trembling leaf

Death might be seen as an evil thief

but a silent mind and an open heart

might make you start 

to find beauty everywhere

and when the flame of a candle is no more

dawn has arrived on another shore.

The last two lines make the first six come alive.
