"LAST WILL" I give my breath to the wind, I give my cry to the sky, To the water, I give my tears, To the earth, I give my birth. To humanity, I give my love, To peace, I give a dove, To faith, I give belief, and to sorrow, I take its grief. And greater than all these things above, I yield to God my life, my love. Michael P. McGrew'
