I Relinquish Them

Teddy, I could write the novel of my life, but it would be a very sad book, no one would read it I am sure, sadly these words are quite true, this is my plan, my ashes and those of my poetry will mingle when it is time ~

Andrea, thank you for that fav !!

Andrea, thanks for visiting with that wonderful comment, yes indeed, this one has impact, and sadly is true, me and sister had a deep conversation, and this is what I want and she will make sure it happens, a little raw perhaps, but preparations must be in place, as my health is not the best, it is a fragile thread holding me here, and one never knows when their time will come, another thing we discussed are my pets, and oh happiness, she will take them to live with her -

Paul, I love that comment it is like a poem itself, no longer sad but forever beautiful, oh my eyes are tearing, thank you

Balveen, well, yes I am young but my health is delicate and one never knows so my sister and I had this deep conversation, my funeral wishes are written down and my poems will go with me if possible, if not she will have them burned and put them with my ashes, it may sound morbid, but I am on a fragile thread, so we need to speak of these things ~

Eileen, thank you for visiting and your lovely comment, you know me, always writing of death, I had this serious talk with my sister, somehow I just needed to know what will become of the poetry and this is what we decided. I will take it with me.

Keith, thanks for the visit, and confirming to 20 words!! And thanks for the compliment, appreciate

Eric, thank you for the beautiful comment, my sister and I have spoken and if my poems cannot be cremated with me, she will burn them and put them with my ashes, I want my ashes and my poems ashes to be as one, I know this sounds morbid, but one must be prepared for eternity, she will not delete anything I have written here, we are talking about the paper copies of my poetry....

Dalia, thanks for visiting my poem, I am well dear heart, but one must prepare for eternity, I cannot fathom my poetry fading on paper, the corners frayed and unread, put in storage somewhere so I wish to take them with me, my sister understands and will follow my wishes when the time comes, hopefully not for a long, long time ~
