Good Mourning

A person I knew

was gone in a few

shuffled off his mortal coil

after a life of toil

Exhaustions caught up

one’s that life brought up

His body finally gave

after the long road he paved

His family’s wormwoodic state

never turned to an asphodelic rate

they knew it’s partial grief

it’s duration, only brief

looking for a rainbow

a shelter from peltering woe

amidst the storm

deprived from any norm

Death should be sweet

for it’s senses will defeat

if you look amidst the seas

their suffering has already ceased

So shall we smile at the wake?

to cover our hearts that ache

or should we cry

to the point our ducts dry

We may be sad for their passing

but they have what we are longing

Eternal peace and serenity

separated from the world of calamity

Cherish all your memories

accept all it’s conformities

we will never know what we’ll see

maybe loved ones smiling with glee
