Two Poems from our Funerals Poetry Collection

 
 
I WENT TO A GATHERING
   
Author: Kenneth Casewell
   
Poem:
I WENT TO A GATHERING
   
 
I went to a gathering of the deceased
(Who meant nothing to me?)
Following the mourners,dressed in the black
Of their infrequent meetings,
Side stepping the puddles of their castaway weeping.
(What was it I wonder?)
This casting down stones of forgotten endearments.
The tea was okay as retold memories
Spilled over the tables, in their reminiscing.
Clutching memento's as they departed
Should that it bring back his leaving?
The best tea service put back in its box
Would that it could have a meaning to me,
As I clung to my mothers,apron of tears.

REFLECTION
   
Author: Jenessa Hopkins
   
Poem: REFLECTION
   

On a cold, misty evening I wandered
down to the shore of my childhood home;
a lonely beach, next to a lonely stage
With my head in my hands, I wondered "where did the time go?"

I touched the Atlantic ocean
it hasn't changed a bit, it has always been there
the constant, inevitable ebb and flow
wave over wave, sure to follow the next

A single tear fell from my eye
in memory of the man who first brought me here
A blue eyed soul, who I'll never forget
who I wonder about everytime I touch the water

Though, I never have to wonder again, I will
As the sun peaks through the mist
the tide sets in now... once again
I find his reflection as I look in the sea
