Premium Member Mother’s One-Way Ticket
Our sweet mother went to heaven one Spring day. Four years ago, the flowers folded their wings. Hymns, ethereal in the fog; smile at bay. Left at table, in closet, on shelves - her things. Most dearly departed, her ticket one-way. And my father cheers her urn each day. She’s in our hearts, our thoughts are off and flying. This family is...

ONE WAY TICKET
ONE WAY TICKET Am I really swimming in grief And no prospect of any relief And this situation belies belief It wasn’t so bad in recent days But how such shifts can amaze Tell me if it’s sunlight up there But then, I always had assumed Any such attempt was doomed As buried riches rarely exhumed Was I just following some craze With a whole shipwreck...

Premium Member That's the Ticket
Things that aren't my cup of tea, don't include cups of tea. Although I did spend my first 20 odd years saying I didn't like it but then it soothed a stomach ulcer (relief only felt mid sip) and I enjoy tea now (but not stomach ulcers). Other things aren't my cup of tea, like...

Dirty Celebration
Their victorious voice peal: “We’ve grandly struck a deal! In many ways now real And worth a struck whisky seal!” But their joy others don’t feel, Dead sure that they often steal And wounds inflict that don’t heal; Victims prayer: his skin doesn’t peel The worst of them, their O’Neil Violence long the ticket for a meal, And...
