Love Death Love & spirit, faith & trust. In my life, each one's a must. Love from others keeps me warm. Faith surrounds me in the storm. Spirit waits, then gently acts. Trust your heart & question 'facts'. Soon it will be time to go. Don't know when, don't wanna know. No regrets, I loved this show. Death resets & lets us grow. Glow with kindness, take it slow. Coast along & feel the flow. Most are strong, yet never know. We all belong, yet all must go. Take a moment, learn to hear. Listen for which way to steer. Ask & wait - it will be clear. Cuz each & every soul is dear. Each one unique, & needed here. Keep your loved ones very near. Headed for the cemetary, somehow isn't very scary. Always near & necessary. Why make death an adversary? Infinite, yet temporary. Fear & pain... just momentary. When I go, I'm going merry! Burn my bones, please. Do not bury! BG13 4:54 PM, June 12th, 2004
I wrote that one for another group that I was a member in, and it was just a spontaneous response to something I read there. It took me about 10 to 15 minutes, maybe less, and just flowed out onto the screen with little thought or effort. In retrospect, after having read it many times, I can tell it was not revised or editted much, and also view it as a little bit juvenile now. But I do agree with the message, thank you.
very nice! usually so much rhyming would clog the poem, but it only enhanced yours. the flow was excellent, and the point you made was even better. well done.
It is so nice to hear when someone has enjoyed something I wrote. That always makes me smile. I also like your poems, and often find that the poets I enjoy reading the most seem to be the same ones that I hear have read my poems. Guess it makes sense, really. Thank you so much for your compliment, it is appreciated.
