Rosa Trejo

Say Not, They Die, Those Splendid Souls
Say not, they die, those splendid souls, 
Whose life is winged with purpose fine; 
Who leave us, pointed to the goals; 
Who learn to conquer and resign. 
Such cannot die; they vanquish time, 
And fill the world with glowing light, 
Making the human life sublime 
With memories of their secret might. 
They cannot die whose lives are part 
Of the great life that is to be; 
Whose hearts beat with the world's great heart, 
And throb with its high intensity. 
Those souls are great, who, dying, gave 
A gift of greater life to man; 
Death stands abashed before the brave; 
They own a life death cannot ban.
