Eulogy for a Bonsai

I have to come clean as I return to see 
your ashen corpse and dried leaves  
My survival became more important than yours 
but now I feel badly.

Humans choose to love their own selves 
More than anyone they choose to love
Don’t believe what they say in their poems

I loved you because you would tempt me
to hear the silent moment
I will never forget your beautiful nebari
Funny, I learned that word when I met you

I put you under the cruel sun and fed you
It worked as long as we were together
We were both once green and authentic

We come from the same mother
I wish she had given you feet and legs 
Then like me, you might still be alive
She put us in a tea cup of naive cruelty

Well-meant intentions cannot sustain life.
Maybe my departure made you wish to be dead
I once wished for that too


Premium MemberRIP Erich Anderson And Rob Dier

Woodsman on a prowl 
Sneaking around like an owl 
Noticing innocents getting a fright 
Watchman you are a good knight 
Defending partiers in a plight 
Battling a monster in a murderous fight
Erich you guarded them all 
Despite the rainfall 
Where thunder clapped 
Lightning snapped 
Spotlighting your heroic stage 
Heralded by the girls maturing in age 
Until your deadly scripted page 
As we reflect surrounded by campfire mist 
Who should be on the angelic list 
Mr. Anderson may not have received Brad Clooney fame 
But we knew your look maybe not name
Reminded the rat was Ben 
While the chopping mall no longer needed Ken 
RIP mechanical hiking buddy 
Protecting those from evil not really funny 
Make it sunny 
Heavens will be brighter 
Since you are now a soulful fighter 
We all down here 
Are in it for the scream and cheer 
Toasting Rob Dier 
With a corkscrew and beer

All I Got

All I Got
The first smell of the morning air
The morning air that never stays the same
A fling with despair
Chagrin no worries no care 
Audiences who would of knew
Everyone of them then then you would have known
A story A king A tyrant
A story I'd of never heard out on that Island
Fantasy my brain craves more
The trick of being like the air
My story if time can see that my mind was another me
Putting up with a comedy of errors
I laugh it is a funny story involving a change
Planning to be caring and fair practiced talent 
To tolerate all that goes wrong
Living changing learning rearranging
Expect the same challenge as you offer
Fully shielded by what I like
Never a passion dismiss never a passion remixed
Stay tuned to the frequency of toxic resonance
Then practice to orbit the stratosphere  
Conquering by visiting the state of Fear

To Whom It May Concern

To whom it may concern,
For time will surely tell,
I write to my loved ones
To say that I am well.

I scarcely can recall
A time more I content,
Than here amongst my friends
With time more wisely spent.

The rooming here is quaint,
In truth, a little cramped.
Likewise, harsh April rains
Make all my walls feel damped.

The silence, although grave,
Does make for better sleep.
Yet, every passing day
More neighbors moan and weep.

I hope to see you soon,
Perhaps within the year.
For winters cold and stiff
Are awfully lonely here.

Until we meet again,
I wish you all the best.
For my death after all
Is quite the restless test.

Premium MemberWhen Doves Cry

My love has passed away. What can I say?
I could tell so many stories from his life.
Things sad or funny. I could talk all day,
for no one knew him better than his wife.

I want for everyone to know that he
would lift me up, yet now he’s past the sky!
I hope he’s looking down on you and me.
Know this though: where he’s gone, doves don’t quite cry.

Mourning doves – when they cry – shed tears of joy.
They bring us peace though we be sorrowing.
I see my husband’s smile. It’s that of our boy.
Our children’s hopes we should be borrowing.

Loved ones live on through memories we share
with one other till we’ve all passed on
to the shining side, for I know that’s where
I’ll greet my love again one glorious dawn.


Our Nana

A V.I.P, Our Queen you see. There will never be anyone else quite like her.
Always dressed in her Absolute best, nothing more and nothing less.
Her absolute favourite was M&S.

Not a hair out of place, or lack of smile upon her face.
Everywhere she went, Our nana radiated beauty, elegance and grace.

Our Nana was a hero, Sweet but Stern, 
Funny but Firm, Small and Mighty,
Terrific and Tiny.

A force to be reckoned with I think you would all agree, Zooming around with her frame Ever so hastily!
Throughout the years there were ups and downs, Our nana got up and straightened her crown.

An inner strength I most admired, Our nana's time came and she grew tired.
We tucked her in and said Goodnight, your wings are ready, you can stop this fight.
We will all be okay and take care of our Mum, go to Grandpa now Our nana, go and live another lifetime of fun.

Premium MemberA Golden Girl

A Golden Girl, Ms. Betty White, one day shall meet
Your life measured in memories that were sweet
May you tap dance to the rhythm of the beat
As you were always amusingly funny on your feet

Betty White was the gentle Rose
Golden Girl’s funny lady of repose
She charmed us all on those shows
With kindness a poet might compose

Notting Hill Consorting With the Enemy

Funny

Sorry

No

One of the saddest of life's
ironies is this

That how a person when alive

Who not a single good could
thing could be reported of

Is now in death being eulogised
about 

By the very same people he
was treated by with contempt
and as an enemy

Bearing in mind they never actually
knew him 

But in fact choose rather
to consort against him

Or even gave him the benifit of
the doubt

Funny

No

Both sorry and sad

Rest in Peace

Best Wishes

Kind Regards

To your grieving family

Because at the end of the day

A Wife has lost her husband
and now is a widdow

And her children
Are now without a father

And just remember

As an actress in jest once said

Im just a women standing in
front of a man telling her she
loves him

So does a crown and service
not slip when it comes to feeling
raw human emotion 

Because surely there is no 
defense to the heart against
bad news

Because when all is said and
done in death and loss 

Are we not different but all
the same eventually at last

A Semicolon Isn'T a Medical Condition

My Muse
Squeezed
One out

I think
I will
Call

IT

Premium MemberMy Eulogy

Caren was a poet, an artist, a painter, a player.
She played mostly with children
For they delighted her 
All the days of her life

Her own children grew up, so she taught school
So she could play with other children
She played them chess, board games, word games.
She loved brain quest games especially.

Caren was a gamer.
She played about four hours a day.
Scrabble and Words with Friends.
She had many real friends too.

Most of them know she wants
Puff the Magic Dragon played at her funeral.
She loved the 70’s, being a hippie, and
Helen Reddy. Especially “I am Woman.”

She was fun, funny, and fantastic.
I know because I am her muse, Trixie.
Yes, she named me.
That is how she was.

Simply the Best

You do it for me, better than tea,
better than Camembert, or a nice runny Brie.
Better than honey, or marmalade toast
or an unexpected letter that arrives in the post.
Better than hob nobs, or baby's smiles,
or the sensual feeling of polished tiles.
Better than Connolly's funniest joke,
or dipping toast soldiers in a nice runny yolk.
Better than finding a twenty pound note
in the inside pocket of an old favourite coat.
Better than bacon with a nice crispy rind,
or a cool gin and tonic to help me unwind.
Better than snow on Christmas Day morning,
or lying in bed, stretching and yawning.
Better than finding jeans that fit,
or a long train journey with places to sit.
Better than bubbles that pop on your nose,
or the feeling of warm, silver sand in your toes.
Better than the tingle of ice on your tongue,
or the warm glow of knowing that you belong.
Better than sunshine, better than rain,
better than the I.Q. of Einstein's brain.
Even better than picking a scabby knee,
you're better than all this and more to me.

Premium MemberCrackers

Mmm! 
I ate a Cracker! 
Crackers taste good! 
Now I'm a cannibal.

Oh Jesus, There Went All the Money

Don’t need new sneakers
‘cause you’ll never find your feet
Don’t need no lock ‘n’ key
You got the worst house on the street
You gambled everything
And got busted, broke and beat
Your luck was runny
Now you got no money

Don’t bother makin’ up yo mind
You got no choice
You got no pull, got no sway
And you ain’t got no voice
No rainbows in the sky
Under which you can rejoice
It’s not too sunny
When you don’t have money

So you traced your evil
Back to its root
And fully resisted
Forbidden fruit?
Well ain’t you clever
And ain’t you cute
Why you haven’t offed yourself,
I can’t compute

Some people set aside
Retirement pensions
Some people stay awhile
In houses of detention
You have success –
It’s just in a state of suspension
Ain’t fate funny
When you don’t have any money?

Hit the bricks, pal
You couldn’t close a window
Couldn’t hit water if you fell from a boat
Couldn’t keep up with your shadow
Looks like you’d better 
Get used to this gutter –
A far cry from the meadow
Full of fawns and furry bunnies
Now that you’ve lost the money
