John Michaels Poet Nonet

Resting Place

I visit your final resting place
and my emotions come unbound.
I pause just for a moment
and make barely a sound.
Whisper a few words;
nothing profound.
Repose, peace,
newfound.
Sleep.

Andrea Dietrich February 12, 2017 at 5:59 PM Wonderful. I am a lover of Etheree and have written many but nonet is right beside Etheree for form!!! John Michaels February 13, 2017 at 4:06 PM This was one of my more personal poems (and one of my favourites, actually), so wasn't sure whether to post it or not. I'm so pleased you liked it. I will have to investigate the Etheree form!
