When I saw the title I wondered what it would mean in your poem, because we use that word loosely to describe many things which simply are not everlasting. And it was a moving tribute you offered that is far more real then the already fading memory in dissolving stone. We remember you for how you lived not how you died. That is a theme that need to be underlined. And now I'm searching my memory for people who deserve a similar homage from me. They will continue to live as long as we the living keep them alive.
