Sara Kendrick Poet Free verse

Notes About The Poem

Suicide

So I wrote a poem
Somehow she committed
Selfish hushed hated act  
She reaches out from the grave
Susurrations impede
Sucking, pulling under
Suffering family

Written: 10-13-2020
Sponsor: John Lawless
Contest: So I wrote a poem
I had to enter under something because Pleiades is not on the list of Poetry forms. So I entered it as Free Verse.

Susurrations:  whispers

Andrea Dietrich October 15, 2020 at 6:08 PM What a great idea for Pleiades form Sara. Yes, free verse is about all you can call it. The sponsor of the current music contest is having us call it verse. Sara Kendrick October 16, 2020 at 3:43 AM Andrea, I had looked at the contest and wanted to try to form but of course the topic did not fit the contest. Thanks for stopping by. Sara

Anne-Lise Andresen October 15, 2020 at 7:52 AM - How's it going with Doris and Wayne, Sara ? (You can S- mail me :) Sara Kendrick October 15, 2020 at 9:45 AM SS, I haven't heard from them this morning but yesterday she said Wayne wasn't quite as congested but that he did not sleep well. Thanks for asking and for stopping by. Sara

Victor Buhagiar October 13, 2020 at 10:50 AM Very creative Pleads. Suicide is never the answer although one could be mentally sick. ~~ Sara Kendrick October 13, 2020 at 12:52 PM Victor, Thanks for stopping by. Yes, anyone who commits suicide is not well and needs help to get to a better place but sometimes they either don't get the help or treatment doesn't get them where they need to be. Sara

Anne-Lise Andresen October 13, 2020 at 7:42 AM - A dramatic poem, Sara - Sorry for your family ... keep your distance ... even if it's difficult - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Sara Kendrick October 13, 2020 at 9:37 AM SS, I just got a call from Doris and she said Wayne is worse and they went to the clinic. They said he has a bad case and sent him to the hospital to get a chest x-ray. I haven't heard anymore. Remember him in prayer and also his wife and son. Thanks for stopping by with an uplifting comment. Sara

Silent One October 13, 2020 at 6:59 AM You captured the shock and sadness of your subject very well in this... Hope you are well Sara.. Sara Kendrick October 13, 2020 at 7:09 AM S.O., Yes, suicide is a sad and a shocking topic but it still happens today. We are all okay. My daughter and her husband have COVID19 but seem to have a mild case of the illness. Their son has been put in isolation as well but he doesn't have it but has to stay home. I hope that they continue to be okay. Sara
