A tribute

...The dead are never gone,
they're in the breast of a woman.,
they're in the crying of a child,
in the flaming torch.
The dead are not in earth:
they're in the dying fire..,
the weeping grasses,
whimpering rocks,
they're in the forest, they're in the house,
the dead are not dead.

- Ibn Al Arabi (1165-1240)
