In all my lives, I never knew anyone like you before. nWoke up one day, swore I heard the sound of heaven knocking on my door. nAnd after all these years long passing, ntime to reflect, no time for wasting. nWalking down the jasmine corridor. nReflecting echoes of quiet laughter. nnIn all my life, I was never better served than I was served by you. nAnd in my way, hope you agree I tried to serve you too. nOut on the headland I stepped once unsteady. nYou there to catch me , I breathe more freely. nHand in mine down the jasmine corridor. nnThrough all my life, I chased flitting illusions at a faster pace. nNever stopped to think: the moment was for seizing, had myself to face. nYou made my bed to lie in, stately. nMad cats, grandchildren, here more often lately. nThe final view from the jasmine corridor.
