Grief

washes

over me

- a tsunami

of pain that soon ebbs.

Cleansed, I embrace

life with a 

dance of

Joy

of your sad thoughts
behind louvered blinds
till pain wanes…then
wipe away
your tears:

winter begins.
Hibernating bulbs

splashing, cooling.
Ebbing and flowing
on golden sands
where children

Grey gravestones stand erect like soldiers.
Fallen heroes in nameless graves,
they fought for king and country
and paid a heavy price
with their precious lives.

 Like a hammock from heaven's throne
 Surrounded by stars galore

what's on my mind
would you love me more
or would you run

"To die would be an awfully big adventure!" - J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan



Death
A grand
Adventure
God's gift to make
Each breath so precious
Life's sweet echo
Warm and dark
Like the
Womb.

greet us

happily

wagging their tails.

How precious pets are!
