Poems 2

Jan 31st

Cards of condolence mixed with bills,
Combined with calls,
Combined with certificates.

'I'm so sorry's' wrapped around deepest sympathy's,
Linked with 'He was so young's' and whispered
'You know it was suicide?'

Choose a day,
Choose a time,
Choose a suit,
Choose some music,
Choose a charity.

Make some sounds,
Wipe some tears,
Drink the wine,
Work the room,
Say thank-you for coming

All I want is him still here.....
