As clouds evaporate up in the sky.

A Golf Limerick
While a man was golfing in Fife
a funeral cortege was arife,
his head bowed in prayer
at this somber affair
to pay last respects to his wife!...

autumnal cortege
files in scarlet and orange
under azure skies
yellow evening beams
pots of gold across the grass
daylight early fades
saffron harvest moon
bewitches the crisp night air
catching earthbound eyes

White Rose
it lies there alone,
one flower, on a coffin
that the flag once adorned
carrying the soldier home,
brave hero, an only son.
White roses were strewn,
when the cortege was driven
through crowded lined streets,
a flowered road of goodbyes
written in the rose of hope

Full Moon Night
As darkness descends like foggy mist,
God turns on His ornate chandeliers.
Attended by a cortege of starry maids,
Full Moon arrives in her glowing raiment,
Beckoning us heavenward to gaze and praise
And stay in wonderment at God’s great artistry!

I AM IN CLUSTROPHOBIA
OF LIFE AGAIN.
BUT I AM TOO STRONG
I WILL BE OUT OF THAT
PAIN.
LET IT BE A CLANDESTINE
TO THE WORLD.
IT WILL COME OUT SOMEDAY
I KNOW.
THE PEOPLE AROUND ME
WILL REGRET IT ONE DAY
I KNOW.
CONUNDRUN WILL BE
SOLVED ONE DAY-O.
THE DAY WILL NOT BE
MY CORTEGE OF MY
LIFE-O.
I HAVE STRENGTH TO
COME OUT OF THAT
ANGINA ONE DAY-O....

Autumn Among the Stones
I sit among the stones under a lowering October sky, longing to see more than others have seen,
And tarry where the hurried have passed.
And sit, remembering streets of earth, and hooped
Black dresses trailing the dirt.
And watch agape as a brief cortege enters the gate, and I
Follow quietly until they pause where the small recesses wait.
And as the mourners weep, I reach to comfort and they are no more....

Cortege
Crisp
the mourning,morning air
the cortege passing
takes her there.
black on black
and black again,
the morning funeral
of a friend.
Light so light
she has become,
lighter than the mourning son
brave as angels on the wing,
how she valued everything.
Saw the good in me and you,
even though it wasn't true,
shared the bread of peace and love
wings of beauty like the dove,
flying low there on the wind,
the morning funeral of a friend....
