Will someone teach me how to die?
I want to see it coming and maintain my wits
Enough to remember sweet smelling mornings
The sweat of horses, full yellow moons
Strong arms and love in the grass
Without being greedy for more

Death is not an issue as we will stay with our Spirit for eternity and no matter how we die we will be alive.
OK maybe...... but the actual moment still has to be reckoned with........ let's wrangle that little doggie.............
Forgot to say...... I've just ordered "The Book Thief" - I love getting book recommendations........ keep them coming! There's a movie of it with Geoffrey Rush - have you seen?
We can look to the true message of Easter. I don't mean 'messing about' with 'religion' though, as in some places.
I think I know what you mean Orchidee.......... it's a beautiful message - with or without a god figurehead......... if there was a Jesus I don't believe he would have liked what has been done in his name....... imagine him watching heretics burned at the stake..... hmmmmmm I don't think so...........
Thank you Lorna.
A powerful and poignant poem.
Good stuff.
Keep writing
