Join Me, Please


I’m writing. Won’t you
Join me, please?
I find it’s kind of lonely
When I’m dotting i’s and crossing t’s.
We could do it together-
It would be lots of fun.
We could write, while it’s raining,
About the summer sun.
And when it gets too cold outside
We will sit by the fire and read.
Read the words of ancient writers
As they beckon you and me.

I’m writing. Won’t you
Join me, please?
The world is far too empty
When it’s filled with only words by me.
Let us fill it together –
Full of fond memories.
We could write, when it’s summer,
About the Winter’s peace.
And when it gets too full down here
We will look to the stars and dream.
Dream about our future children
As they beckon you and me

A Small Remembrance

How fragile is the life we spend
How small our numbered days
One can hardly understand
How futile is the pursuit of worldly things

With somber grievance we make our dues
To you who lost
What we cannot imagine to lose.
You were cut short of what you thought you had
You lost all, you gave all,
For a bitter end

Your memory now is all that lives
It shall not fade 'till this world ends
Though anger took you on that day
Love will make you forever stay
