death, fire,
dead
bones rise
in ashes,
furnace spews clouds
smelling putrid smoke,
tongues consume bodies all,
aeolian whispers fan
Varanasi’s fierce appetite,
prayer flags wave like a wick of hope
while the ruddy Ganges silently flows

death, lost love,
I watch the sun's smile gleam on the petal
as it drifts beneath the Dogwood tree
moving from sunlight to shadow
we once burned bright like the sun
shining on everyone
until heaven spoke
now you are gone
and my light
shines no
more

I
held the
hand of a
stranger lying
face down with flying
bullets spraying the room,
killing, striking so many
innocents frozen in terror.
As I fled I realized she was
dead from terrorist's merciless melee.

touched me deeply. I am praying for all those who are suffering.

caregiving
She,
hung a,
Hummingbird,
Feeder near the,
Window of my room,
So I can look outside,
See life again as God's gift,
And raise my broken spirits up.
She doesn't know how much she gives me,
But I vow to live because she loves me.

He
Wonders
If he's here
Or has he slipped
To the other side
Past the reach of her hand
His mind grasps for her presence
Hearing the softness of her voice
Wishing himself back into her arms
Eyes open he sees her angelic face

Two
fawn stood
beyond Dale's
grave and fed on
fallen acorns. A
doe, then a second deer
haltingly drew near. One buck
hung back where grass met woods, head raised,
watching. . . like my dear brother - apart
from family, yet not too far away.

death,
In a house too huge for them to maintain,
a man hunched over with back pain lives
with a disabled daughter and
his very elderly wife.
A recent heart attack
has left her frailer
and meaner. The
doctor “says”
she will
die.
Not
willing
to get up
or walk for years,
she had atrophied.
Refusing sponge baths, meds,
or a private nurse, she screams
for her ill spouse whose little strength
does little good. Time is crawling on
the doomsday clock: two minutes to midnight.

death, moving on,
I never imagined I’d see the day
When you drew your final breath and died
Nothing can ever prepare you
For the loss of a loved one
No one lives forever
Cherished memories
Stay forever
In our hearts
And our
Minds.
Your
Assets
Are all gone
Nothing remains
Your home has been sold
Life must go on for us
Our time on earth is precious
We don’t know when we will depart
Family and friends can’t be replaced
Material possessions mean nothing

High
above
rich wetland
a lone kestrel .
Patient death beating,
fixed in measureless blue.
Elegant white swans swim through
rare grasses greeting migrating
geese sliding in with the setting sun.
Darkness falls, who will sing the requiem?

Blue,
The sky
Reflected
By the ocean.
Blue lips of the drowned.
Bodies trapped, never found.
Blue songs sang to mourn the dead.
Souls in sorrow coping, hoping.
Blue water spout casting people out.
Empty graves with flowers the hue of blue.

The ‘Wild Rose’ Drifts away with the morning,
tempest howls in discrimination
clouds inconsolable lament,
the creek no longer arid
replenish the river.
There ‘Wild Rose’ Fearful
taut disjointed;
on her way
to the
sea!

When
all Mom’s
kids left home,
Priscilla, our
Siamese, lived on
to well past twenty years
of age. One day, approaching
her litter box, she raised one foot,
gave forth a strange raucous sound, and then
collapsed. The cat quite literally croaked!
*croaked is also American slang for died.
(I had introduced Priscilla to our family. I had been selling
cards all summer at age 14 so that I could buy myself a bike,
and a lady I sold cards to offered that cat to me! Boy, did
she live a long time.)

Watch
for spring
to roll round
at Easter time.
Resurgence of green
starts to wake up the world.
Warmer days tag chilly nights
saluting sunshine and showers.
Familiar trees and bushes blossom.
Spring begins to re-cultivate our minds
from the intermission of winter’s freeze.
Winter is harsh but with good reason
nature knows to slow down and rest.
Winter is stark yet she’s skilled -
sidetracking us with snow
and wiping out pests.
But best of all
Christmas is
on her
watch.

A
Visit
Today to
Cemetery
Father's Day no dad
To talk to and share thoughts
Too hot to stay and visit
The grave was in good shape weed free
Mother's parents and grandparents' graves
Need the grass pulled out and tending some...Sad

NATURE STUDY (Etheree)
things
stipple
are diffused
pointillist view
the makings of things
reds yellows greens and browns
in patch-dots of bright color
summer ends and autumn begins
a time which is both joyful and sad
death but deep down god’s promise of rebirth

pulsates
under sky
scrapers, listen
To the city breathe
blowing, huffing, puffing
hurry, push, eyes blankly stare
SCREAMS echoing in the alley
go ignored in the sidewalk shuffle
stench of urine, decay and APATHY

O
Sweet earth,
You awe me.
Your daring wiz of
Forging day and night.
How do you just do it?
Your belly of oceans and
That breast of mountains and shorelines.
They say you were once a burning ball
Where do you really come from? I wonder.

Peace
on earth -
hollow words
in my ears. Pain
and violence stain
the daily news. Trying
to make sense of senseless acts
I grow numb - coping with extremes,
Wondering if broken shards of peace
can be made whole using the glue of tears.

Painful Denouements
The
stories,
deep music,
showcase sorrow
and sad denouements
depressing heart and mind
with the grief of lost love, death.
Shocking endings stab with torment;
yet we crave woeful scenes even though
opera brings heart-wrenching denouements.

Green
Hulk rise
From Ocean's
Deepest depth bring
The Big Apple hope
Like an ancient Phoenix
Brought life to which died by flames
As Father Time _ Poseidon watch
To see if this resurrection starts
A whole new era__ blessed golden life

dear
daddy
even though
your gone from here
I shall remember
father's day has always
been your favorite time so
today I come and placed a rose
at the foot of your grave- sites bedding
and I even placed one for mama too

Husband
Accident
He fell asleep
While he was driving
We had an argument
I was supposed to with him
They say that he died instantly
The coroner said blunt force trauma
I had to go into the hospital
I refused to believe that he was gone
It was true, I would never see him
If I had only gone with him
He would have stayed wide awake
We'd have been arguing
There was no goodbye
Just a phone call

Ask

Jesus has
done for you! But
what have you lately
done for our sweet Jesus
so today I come to pray
and remember that Easter was
the day Jesus was exonerated
and now sits on the right side of our Lord

Sigh.
Not good.
It's your job.
He's bleeding, dude.
Do something for him!
My patient, and he's fine.
Your patient, and he's dyin'.
Why don't you care anymore, man!?!
You ever care?! Just want the t-shirt!?
Come on my scene again, you're the one hurt...
