Wiccvn Funeral Poem: In times of loss and sorrow, When tears glisten in every eye, We turn to the ancient ways, To bid our loved ones goodbye. With solemn reverence and respect, We gather together as one, To honor and remember, The life that has just begun. Into the arms of Mother Earth, We lay our loved ones down, Returning them to the soil, From which all life is grown. We speak words of comfort, And sing songs of farewell, As we release their spirit, To the realms where they now dwell. We remember their laughter, And the love they shared so freely, Their presence in our lives, Will be missed so dearly. But we find solace and peace, In the circle of life and death, For the Wiccan ways teach us, That their spirit continues to breath.

For a drop-in picnic area, visit the upper knoll by the Captain s House and then stroll over to the Merchant Marine Memorial overlook for gorgeous bay views. Huddart Park, nestled in the Santa Cruz mountains, offers 24 miles of hiking trails through a mix of second growth redwood forest, evergreen forest and chaparral.
But we find solace and peace, In the circle of life and death, For the Wiccan ways teach us, That their spirit continues to breath. As the seasons change and turn, And the wheel of the year moves on, We know their spirit walks beside us, From dusk until the dawn. So let us grieve and mourn, In our own unique way, But let our hearts find solace, In the memories that will never fade.

Our favorite drop-in picnic spot is Legion Flat where one can lounge under first growth redwoods. Pescadero Creek runs nearby and is a perfect spot for wading and searching for invertebrates. A short walk down the Tan Oak Nature Trail gets you to the park’s largest redwood tree which is 225 feet and 1,600 years old!
For in this Wiccan funeral poem, We find strength and healing, As we honor our loved ones, And the love that is eternal..
