death of a friend,
Her ink has dried, her stories spun
On distant shores, her songs are sung
Atlantis must be beautiful in fall Carolyn,
Love always, jim

Death usually brings her own rewards.
More hugging and clutching,
More appreciation,
More reverence,
More laughter.
More respect.
In some ways,
It is the best
Time to love,
A reminder
That we
Are all
Borrowed,
But we
Have to
Be returned.

When in this life I felt down
You were the one that was around
Maybe it was the way you held my hand
I knew in my heart you would understand
I miss the way we used to sit and talk
The times we didn't look at the clock
The way you walked in those tight jeans
Made me want to pull my skin and scream
I remember trembling at your touch
I love and loved you so very much
I am lost inside now you're gone
Baby you are still my life's song
When I look to the night sky, I tear
I miss you and wish you were here

death of a friend,
Back home, I ponder long on life.
Death is so final, no return.
I sit alone on my sheltered cosy porch,
And think of spring forget-me-nots,
Of roses dark as festive damask,
And swaying poppies red and gold.
Of summer figs and yellow gourds,
Of sweet delicious melons,
And mouth-watering peaches
Syrupy and luscious and juicy,
While sunsets turned to red
And moons shone on my love.
So I will not bid her goodbye.
Others may wail, lament and cry.
I shall live on, unattended
And relive the happy endless days,
The haunting lullabies of my love.

My piety,my poetry ,my love
All are in vain
my music, my love ,my mind
All are running insane
My rhymes are all crooked
I can't write a perfect song
Looks like my life is worthless
my music, my poetry its all gone
Behold the paradox,
In these old rhymes
living in a worthless life
All these times
The music's almost over
just need to turn out the light
I need just one leap
Need to show on last fight
I need to create something
something that makes you feel
the goal isn't to live forever
Its to create something that will

angel, death of a friend,
Look at I,I Richard Palmer seriously didn't cry,,,
When the ALMIGHTY called,'Poetic Palmer,Poetic Palmer,tell
this physical world bye bye,,,
Don't worry guys,wipe those tears from your eyes,,,
Feel,feel my presence,my spirit didn't blow away like a cloud
in the sky,,,
I am holding the ALMIGHTY hands,
I have become, a part of HIS plan,,,
Watching over and protecting my love ones,,,
An ANGEL,was always my after life intention,,,

death of a friend, lost love, sad,
Autumn leaves are falling
There is sadness in my heart
Red passions, golden memories
Have gathered to depart
The chilling winds of winter
Blow across a barren field
Stripped of all its splendor
Of the beauty once revealed
Flowers painted yellow
Blossoms pink and white
Just dust between the furrows
In the slowly dimming light
Free to sail the heavens
No longer bound with slings
Black bird into emptiness
I soar on broken wings

In graveyard dreams
tombstones are etched
with fading memories
Only plastic flowers
are forever—apart from
my undying love…
Farewell, mon amie...

In the breaking light of dawn,
in a photograph - we kiss.
It's to your inner light I'm drawn,
while cursing fate, and chances missed...
Wrapped in thought, and solitude,
sweet lies trumped by bitter truth.
The road it forks,and one way taken,
now questions over dreams foresaken...
A puzzling gauntlet of how, when and why?
You were my favorite hello,
and my hardest goodbye...

Glowing Cloud On Mountain Top
I met you there, so very full of grace
single rose in your shining raven hair
Radiance beaming from your sweet face
couldn't stop myself, I had to stare!
Every moment since, forever treasured
nights glowed on, your smile a star
Everything since that night measured,
love raced in deep, like a speeding car!
Now time has given me such great sorrow
Heaven welcomed your spirit on in
Misery my food, heartache my tomorrow
forever gone my lover, my great friend!
Glowing cloud on mountain top now dances
I gamble that climb and took my chances!

death of a friend,
Now?
Your bravery takes my breath away,
Time to lay down your weapons and rest,
Perhaps it's time to let your ravaged, exhausted
body float into the clouds
to be greeted by those who love you
Only you can know, decide,

How do I say good bye
How do I say good bye do I just sit down and cry or do I ask God why?
Or do I just say good bye and remember all the good times we had?
How do I say good bye to the Love that we shared with each other
Why do I have to cry when I say goodbye
May you Rest in peace

Death Of Friend
_
________
I fight the crying dawn of Winter
your flowered love....dissolve
Through drifting wind without avail
a thief had come at dawn
And now...........now
A final curtain drawn
Where misty rain drops fall in silence
I sing a bitter song
The room so still...without avail
Another lonely dawn
And in my dreams
For you I wait.....

An angel returned to heaven today
deployed to erase gluttonous hate
from envy's grasp love is pulled away
To bring order to disarray
supplying hope while replacing sloth
An angel returned to heaven today
Armed with beauty, charm and compassion
pride is now faced with a trained assassin
whether with song, a smile, a shoulder or ear
greed, anger and lust is sent running in fear
An angel returned to heaven today
after years of service in the field
from the mission never did she stray
In our hearts she will forever stay
so, let us remember, let us rejoice
cause our angel returned to heaven on this day

Unwanted Things.
A car wreck.
A kid, unexpected.
An absent father to be.
A cheater that brought you,
a sudden health risk.
A divorce.
Car troubles.
Work issues.
Financial burdens.
Bad health,
that effects you,
and…
or…
those you love.
These are a few,
of my un-favorite
things.
There is no song,
about these,
by Julie…
although I read her story,
and she
had a hard life
too.

death of a friend,
Lovely Brooks traversed through
The desert and the glens
From Mountains leaping sunshine
Back to the sea again
Onward now the glittered shore afar
Sure leaning heart
Toward silvery paths of stars
Sweetest joys in wonderous place
Beaming love on every face
Brooks of joy, beyond Earth's bend
Now onward flow,
Farewell sweet friend

THE SPIRIT OF THE SUN DIAL
I tell the sunny hours throughout the day
From dawn til dusk imparting my fair message
Evoking warmth and love throughout the day
No time for shadows hinting at dark presage
But when the shade of night engulfs my dial
A darkening of spirit, life force scorns
The moon now points the hours of denial
Its gleam bare luminating dismal forms
I see the blackness in the hearts of men
And feel despair that overcomes the soul
My spirit plumbs a dark and secret glen
Til lambent rays tint peaks; at last console
Then blessed dawn brings sun in its ascension
Restores my purpose vital, my redemption

Cassio Laps Wondrously
An open porch, gifts spritely legs
on all his fours, meows he begs
so opens I, a tuna can
not be prepared, a stray in tan
that came to be for many years
a wandering did set in fears
yet his return continued on
meows are heard, that be his song
untimely death outside our door
car screeching sound could not ignore
near fronts our yard, the roses bloom
midst stands a cross neath lies his tomb
heartfelt love, receptive wills he
laps Heaven's milk, eternally.

blessing,
Death is a pause between two worlds,
Reach that calm sea where stillness sums;
Embrace swift course in shades that swirl,
Ask to be free of mere outcomes;
Do not feel fear as death finds you.
Death is a friend that brings calm rest,
End with joy near on homeward cue;
Allow brief end to sum this quest,
Touch and feel now the light that shines;
Hope and faith know life's sacred shores.
Deep love endows what's yours and mine,
Intuit a flow that gathers more;
Enter and be one with all things,
See boundless seas of deathless springs.

Cry not for love
Fore love
Is the greatest
Of all things’
Be not of despair
For the Heart withers’
Not ...
Less it be incomplete
With all the completeness
Of an empty Heart
-----
Fear not its’ memory
For whatever is lost
In thought ...
Can only be recaptured
Through the imagination
What-ever is of the
Mind and Heart
Shall never be forgotten
By time
But, shaped by circumstance

there came a time,
more than a moment
pained and slow,
begging to surrender.
regrets flew, hopes landed
tears swam, games ended.

In passing, hearts risk their very essence, their colors, their breathe,
Love who touched the soul, then moved on, toward heaven’s hungry light,
Souls soon reflect the love and peace found when passing into God’s light

death of a friend, lost love, music,
The piano has stopped playing
And there's no more words worth saying
With no more lyrics in my head
Because all the music is dead
My heart beats still without a sound
An empty space where nothing's found
My soul is growing dark inside
All's been lost since the day you died
A breath of life and then it's gone
I find no peace from dusk to dawn
No joy, no hope, no love in sight
No light of day, just endless night
by Cynthia Vipond |

death of a friend, friendship love, soulmate,
We enter the valley
Of shadows
Of thorns
A narrow path
Well worn
Where friends
Have travelled
Tattered, torn
No sunlight
Before new dawn
We said
Goodbye
Our souls forlorn
Yet hopeful joy
To be reborn
