MIXED FEELINGS
If I could now glimpse that future day
When that realisation begins to dawn
For all those expecting one more loss
An unmoving stone, covered in moss
Surrounding faces looking so forlorn
Resisting a temptation to glance away
Hear the whispers to know their mind
With none desiring to speak out loud
Only a few gathered around the bed
And some have sent messages instead
It’s premature for heads to be bowed
All preferred a day of a different kind
A balanced mix of the given and taken
With love and friendship as inspiration
All the unimportant things to be tossed
But anxious no good memories are lost
Still with echoes of that determination
To have left the world a little shaken
