We Became Friends, My Snowman And Me
Cassie58 said:

Something magical about building a snowman and such a disappointment when the temperature changes and the melting process starts. You took me back to my childhood. What fun we had in the snow. A lovely poem and your posted image a perfect match for your words Eileen.

My further comments on the poem \"Put my ashes in a coffee can” by Eileen Clark
Thomas W Case says on this poem : “Very funny. Less expensive than an urn. Lol”
After your death, expenses from your wealth will not matter. Any money or wealth left will go to others, anyway. After your death, it should not be a question of money. Indeed, you should arrange for all your money to be spent rather than be given to those who pestered you during your life. A flower vase is definitely better than an urn. The urn just sits there. It is sealed. It contains memories. In contrast, the flowering in the vase will be a beautiful scene, although you yourself won’t be here to see it. Like I say, don’t leave anything to them fiends… Soman Ragavan. 22 October, 2023. //

My comments on the poem \"Put my ashes in a coffee can” by Eileen Clark
“Just don\'t bury me next to my ex spouse”
This shows that humans can difficultly forgive or forget permanently bad experiences. We have suffered so much from that relationship in our lifetime that we don’t even want to be buried in the SAME grave. Or, even then there will be battles. Here, even “next” to that guy’s grave is refused… A coffee can will do perfectly for the ashes…
Flowers called “forget-me-nots” are a sweet, fantastic way to point to remembrance…
You will flower and bloom even after your death. You will bloom even from your ASHES, for even death will not be the end of you. Your legacies will live on. They will do, since you are a poet. Poets are immortal.
\"(.....) Poets are immortal, says at the very beginning James Burty David. For him, we must not think that the imaginary is disorderly, for even in this apparent disorder, there is a structured language.\" \"De la difficulté à faire rimer poésie et identité.\" \"WEEK-END\" newspaper, Mauritius 6 July, 1997, (page 33).

“(On GAUTHIER). In a world in which everything is impermanent, the poet, by rearranging reality into art, can create something that will have more permanent value. ...... Art can thus provide the poet with a solace for his mortality while he is alive and the hope of immortality in death. (…)” \"TWELVE FRENCH POETS. 1820-1900. AN ANTHOLOGY OF 19TH CENTURY FRENCH POETRY.\" London : Longmans, Green and Co., 1957. (Third impression, 1959). (With an Introduction and Notes by Douglas Parmée). (Pages xiii to lvi). Full acknowledgements are made to the authors, publishers and rights-holders.
From my poem “A disappearing act” :
“The interval might last any length of time :
Some might wish it long, some might not ;
With the depart’d life, untied be the knot :
The reunion shalt birth some terrific rhyme……”
Reunion, here, is about burying both in the same grave or side by side…

Where’s That Smile
charles69 said:

very good poem, Eileen
have you ever considered painting or drawing pictures ? it\'s really not as difficult as you might think
You can do do some quite pretty pictures with just pastels
I\'ve been doing this for about two years at the nursing home where I am a resident
I would be glad to show, help you get started
pastels are not that expensive and be bought online and shipped to your door
when I do a picture, it relaxes me and makes me feel good, like a smile
I have done and given away at the home here about 150 pictures
