Acts of the Grieving
Image by Vesna Kittelson
"Halt, friend.
Trouble not their moments passing
Death hath kissed their fellow gone
And now they have but not left
For it is here they wander on Earth
As they will in Heaven
And what is it our duty
But to stop them? Not this,
We let them search
Themselves
And others.
Upon their wish, we shall heed word
But until then we stand watch
Waiting as they do
Watching as they do
Wishing as they do."
