This poem inspired by the moment that I found myself falling into the dark, unable to breathe, airway completely cut off. I was choking and was saved by intervention of a coworker...God bless her. Many years ago...

MOMENT OF REFLECTION Darkness – between life and death – its quiet space Farewell breath ~held~ in God’s embrace An out-of-body moment – you meet face to face Refinement of soul’s essence – flowers in a vase 5th Place 4/13/2017
