Suicide

Suicide Just before death came a spinning swirl. Lifeless body on the table lain. Lost in a world where hatreds whirl. Just before death came a spinning swirl. What a pity; she is a beautiful girl. Tears falling down like torrential rain. Just before death came a spinning swirl. Lifeless body on the table lain. © Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen January 7, 2010 Poetic Form: Triolet Suicide is deadly. Do not choose death. Choose LIFE. Call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline @ 1-800-273-8255.

Good idea for so many people who are gifted with poetic grace are of the melancoly disposition who knows it might save a life that has so much left to offer. Keep the creative and helpful pen flowing. Sara
