Valedictory

```

(farewell)

In his valedictory address to earth

He said, "Mother-Earth,

My soul is carrying me

To its celestial abode,

But I am leaving behind with you

My soulful gratitude-heart."

My soul's valedictory message:

"Smile to Heaven was too short."

My heart's valedictory message:

"Cry to earth will be too long." ```
