Death of a poem

by Gary

I am sad for all
the dead poems lying
in their tombs with flowers,
as their wombs embrace life
only to be burnt white,
such is the death
the death of a poem

Because the poem has died does not mean the words are forgotten. Brilliantly written piece. Be well, Be safe my friend, dAVE

A very sweet and touchy tribute though it's short
but the words are concise and conveys a feeling of
in depth appreciation for those which are not celebrated
yet will be ever remembered. Such the fate of most poets
but history has them all; the heroes of the present and the future.

Very thoughtful, Gary.
