If only we had the option to say no to death. Alas, it is not in our power. Our option is to prepare.

A blend of us,
So together—
Hither and thither,
You go—I
Sovereign -ly
Flow there … ever
Death, do, never
Curl … hands on
My angel's feathers
So loved |

PEA -
A formidable example of Defiance ...
perhaps stronger than a meek plea for help from an unknown source?

| And here it is again...such a heart felt poem that it helps me shed another tear for the loss of the man I held so dear. I hope you never lose yours. I hope he keeps burning your dinner and telling you how beautiful you are. . . |

For your burnt offerings
You pull with a frown
From that rusting microwave.
Saying, Sorry.
Grab your coat.
Be my treat!

| Phyllis Jean, life this game we play. And always the player with the winning hand, death. Pursues relentlessly, patiently, victoriously. Your perspective on the game in these words shows the grit required to elude him as long as possible. May peace love and joy be with you my friend. Jon Michael |

It conveys so well how the human condition is for all of us, and those we love, to be pursued so relentlessly by death.

If it were I dear Phyllis, I would pass when you do. I could not live without you. It is hard enough in this situation. At least I have your warm loving writings. You are my enchantress.
