" There is a life and there is a death, and there are beauty and melancholy between." Quote _ Albert Camis Everything was fading ... and I was just floating, in a white gauzy place; and I heard mother's voice, then, glimpses of her face ! Everything was fading ... my name was an echo, in a forest sublime; I ran towards her voice, that sweet voice lost in time ! Everything was fading ... I ran through tangled trees, weeping, please wait for me; and the soft wind whispered, go back- angel would be ! Everything was fading ... I could hear odd noises, sister kissing my hand; her tears wet on my skin, back- I held tight her hand ! Everything was fading ... the forest became dreams, yet, I was filled with peace; and my heart held no doubt, life is a masterpiece ! __________________ April 26, 2022 Poetry/Monchielle/Everything Was Fading Copyright Protected, 04-1451-050-26 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Premier contest, Near Death Experience sponsor, Chantelle Anne Cooke, Judged 04/07/2022 Second Place
