Cremation Poems - Poems about Cremation

strong winds blow

strong winds blow


it appears the poet died today
he was afflicted with a broken heart
seems he had no more words to say
he’d already done his part

so they got the oven ready
cause he wanted his body to burn
and they held the tray real steady
and poured him inside an urn

seems the poet flew over the calming seas
more freely

No burial, just a lousy cremation

 No burial

When I died, my family didn’t dare bury me in a grave.
They knew, without a doubt, I'd only misbehave ~
that I'd party with the germs,
and have sleepovers with the worms,
and give the bacteria all that they crave.  

So, just a lousy cremation

When I watched them cremate my body,
I thought their work was

Cremation

Cinders

Souls scarred freedom

Cremation

I stay close to home these days,
my roaming needs seeming to
expire with age, finding more
of what I need in the Silence
of packing; of course, this 
worn-out body is far too cumbersome
to even contemplate wanting – like
frayed clothing, now best for rags;
like empty cans for the recyclable:
I wonder how Earth will handle
my re-purposing?~as for my poetry,
will

Of Cremation

Tell me, mother

what did the fire
whisper to you

as it wrapped your frail body
in its flaming blanket

as it caressed your cheeks
and clenched your hands

as it kissed your eyelids
the way I tenderly used to

closing those deep oceans of love

Happy Cremation Anniversary, Auntie

Home from a chemo session, uncle lights up
a cigarette and collapses
to the slick plastic that covers your chaise
lounge, auntie. He thumps the upholstery
with his legs and elbows for blood
to circulate again. A flake

drifts. Dehydrated lips, uncle
inadvertently kisses ash. Cushions
puff up, deflate. Uncle floats
smoke rings to prove he still has breath.
Your bulbous urn ruptures his rings
on

Uncle Albert

He was always known to everyone as Uncle Albert,
He used to sign all my birthday cards as Uncle Albert,
He used to turn around when I shouted Uncle Albert,
He was who we visited when we went to see Uncle Albert.

But I'm sorry to say, he's now belated,
Sadly passed away, dead and cremated.

And what I can't understand,
And

Our Own Virus Transaction

Even with death
The Man’s gotta bargain a price

So I suppose that’s why that fat a** mortician
As a sales technique
Made my wife and I pick who gets to sit
From the one available chair
In his lavender lobby
For a full hour the morning after

Before he bothered to waddle out
Wiping bean soup from his forehead
Ushering us in to his

Together In Spirit

Together in Spirit.
	I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine, we are forever together in love, heart, mind, and spirit. Their love was sealed upon each other’s heart’s as their eye’s glimpsed into the eyes of the other, for love reaches beyond death! Forever sheltered in love that was blessed by God above.

Cremation

Into the flames,turned into ash,tempreture rising,no looking back...Gone in a second,a goodbye,a tear,death is a warm welcome,with nothing to fear...

Cremation

Cremation
A man was running to the tobacconist,
Bought a packet and hastily opened it took out a cigarette
Lit it and inhaled deeply.
Then his head moved backwards, and he fell and died.
They covered him on a plastic sheet but the cigarette
Was still burning, the layer took fire, cremation.
The fire spread a house was burning the fire engine

In Here

As I stand to watch the clouds of smoke 
I wonder the numbers of pains evoked 

I stare hard into colored flames 
Mourning the now forgotten names 

In this flame was a rich man I once envied 
In here was a beautiful woman I once adored

In here was a baby so innocent 
In here was

Epilogue To Premature Cremation

Clandestine meeting between
the Orvatech Corp. and the Celestial Military Command
