      Echoes of Us - Olivia Orav

      Abiding in Remembrance

      In the quiet, we gather, in prayer we stand,

      Remembering those, who walked ‘neath this land.

      Their voices still linger, like soft-spoken dreams,

      Guiding our hearts, or so it would seem.

      With every soft glimmer, their wisdom we seek,

      In times of stillness, when shadows grow weak.

      Abiding in love, our souls intertwine,

      In remembrance we flourish, eternally shine.

      Divine Threads Woven

      Threads of existence, delicate and bright,

      Woven by hands, unseen in the night.

      Each life a tapestry, rich with the hue,

      Of love and of loss, of joy and of rue.

      In the fabric of time, our stories align,

      A sacred design, in the realm of the divine.

      Together we rise, together we fall,

      In the weft of the cosmos, we answer the call.

      The Timeless Connection

      In the dawn’s first light, we find our way,

      A timeless connection, come what may.

      In the stillness of night, our spirits take flight,

      Bound by a promise, in love’s endless light.

      Through valleys and peaks, our journeys unfold,

      In whispers of truth, ancient and bold.

      The threads of our faith, like stars in the sky,

      Illuminate paths, as we learn to fly.

      Celestial Murmurs

      In the quiet morn we raise,

      Voices lifted high in praise.

      Stars alight, a guiding beam,

      Whispers soft, a sacred dream.

      Heaven's echoes fill the air,

      Grace bestowed, a gentle care.

      Each heart beats in time with love,

      Unified, we rise above.

      Mountains stand, bathed in light,

      Creation sings in pure delight.

      By the stream, where blessings flow,

      Peace surrounds, and spirits glow.

      In the shadows, hope ignites,

      Faith ignited through long nights.

      Together we shall tread this path,

      Finding joy in sacred math.

      Let us walk with humble grace,

      Side by side in this embrace.

      Through celestial murmurs, we find,

      The whispers of a love divine.

      The Spirit's Resonance

      Breathe in deep the morning air,

      Feel the pulse of love laid bare.

      In stillness, our spirits rise,

      Reflecting light from endless skies.

      Voices echo through the trees,

      Nature sings, a gentle breeze.

      In every leaf, a story told,

      Of ancient truths and faiths bold.

      Hearts entwined, we dance in prayer,

      Finding strength in love's soft glare.

      In unity our souls align,

      Resonating through the divine.

      Journey forth, hand in hand,

      Faithful hearts across the land.

      With each step, let kindness flow,

      Together strong, we’ll help each grow.

      In the silence, hear the call,

      The spirit's voice, it binds us all.

      As one we rise, through light we see,

      Together found, forever free.

      Hymns of Our Togetherness

      Gathered here, in sacred space,

      Each soul shines with holy grace.

      In the chorus, voices merge,

      Harmony begins to surge.

      Through trials, we stand as one,

      In the night, we seek the sun.

      With our hands, we lift each heart,

      In this unity, we start.

      Songs of hope, they fill the air,

      In every verse, a loving care.

      Let our spirits intertwine,

      Creating bonds, a holy line.

      Every smile, a shared delight,

      In the darkness, we find light.

      Through the storms that test our ground,

      In our love, the strength is found.

      Hymns arise, sweet melodies,

      Celebrating life's mysteries.

      In togetherness, we ascend,

      A sacred journey without end.

      Ethereal Footprints

      On this earth, we walk with grace,

      Every step a sacred place.

      In the cosmos, ancient ties,

      In our hearts, the wisdom lies.

      Follow paths of light that shine,

      In the stillness, love’s design.

      Guided by a gentle hand,

      Making footprints in the sand.

      Through the trials, we find our way,

      In the night, we seek the day.

      Together, in the light we blend,

      Ethereal footprints without end.

      With each breath, a prayer we send,

      Trusting that our hearts will mend.

      In the whispers of the breeze,

      Feel the calm that put us at ease.

      So let us walk with heads held high,

      With love’s promise, we can fly.

      In the dance of life, we
