All of my poetry has been written on an 'as needs' basis. I wish to express my sincere gratitude to the wonderful families who I have worked with, it is their loved ones that have inspired these poems. In my 11 years of celebrancy they have allowed me to write something special for inclusion in their ceremony. I am eternally grateful. Permission is granted to use this poetry for ceremony and inclusion in Order of Service booklets. However no part may be reproduced for inclusion in any publication without my express written permission. You are welcome to adapt the wording as applicable to the person you are celebrating the life of (ie male/female/favourite things etc). If significant changes are made, in your acknowledgment, please recognise 'adapted from...by Robyn O'Connell.
