Two Poems from our Funerals Poetry Collection

 
 
The passing
   
Author: Thelma Zaracostas
   
Poem:
The passing
   
  The mourners gathered round as the casket
was lowered into the ground
Queaking of the rope, as it's journey to the last resting place began,
a thud was the signal that it had landed below,
flowers thrown within by family and friends.Gravel rained down, down in slow motion fashion, small grains, plip, plop
a light tapping as they landed on top of the still remains, beneath the tightly closed lid
A few shovels of earth into the hole that would soon
be filled in when all had departed, those who came out of respect back to their normal duties,others left to mourn the passing of their beloved.
Life goes on, the endless grief stays hidden in the heart
How long does one grieve forever? How precious is a loved one, time, time for what to forget the sunshine in their eyes forget they walked upon the earth. coping coping, fadeing never never ever.

Anonymous will
   
Author: Liliana Negoi
   
Poem: Anonymous will
   

I, ailing and tormented human being,
I leave these words to be my final will:
to World I leave existence without seeing
the face of luck, or getting any feel.

To Life I leave the people full of sorrow,
deprived of any joy, as I was too.
To Fate I leave my thoughts about tomorrow
and all the dreams I wanted to be true.

To Death I leave my gratitude forever,
for saving me from what I had to stand.
To Time I leave my thanks, for being clever
at hurrying my life until the end.

If someone in this world has loved me ever,
to Her I leave my heart, and my love whole,
and all the pain for never having met her,
and in Thy hands, my Lord, I leave my soul...
