Short but leaves a strong impression. Nice!
Yes, you're so right, life's differences die with us.
Very true, but their lives and memories will be different and live on. Nice take on the prompt this week.
I like the use of 'created' when writing about death. Your words are so true.
Your poem makes me shiver!!! Great Magpie!
very good!
So true and really puts things into perspective.
You know, I thought this very thing when I took this photo last week.
We are so much more alike than we are different.
Death is the great equalizer, isn't it. Nicely said, Rel!
perfectly put!
Excellent and True!
nice blog dear. i lie it.
Equal at both ends. It's just the bit in the middle, where things are so different.
Nice strength to your piece... commonality of life and loss.
i still think the worms like the poor better...the meat is more lean, not so fatty...but i get you...smiles.
when we noticed were my father was buried and that most of his new neighbors were former bigwigs or relatives of bigwigs..we agreed that he had definitely upgraded to a better neighborhood :)

ReplyDeleteHalloween
ReplyDeleteThe night is dark
and the goblins are out,
and the witches and black cats
are prowling about.
And costumed creatures
the strangest I've seen,
are knocking on doors
'cause tonight's Halloween!
Happy Halloween dear Rel:-) xox
