Snowflakes Falling On Evergreens
By La Belle Rouge


when breath has gone
don’t display me in a box

I’ve lived a lifetime in one

don’t look upon closed lids
silent lips nor cold cheeks
painted a warm hue of pink

don’t allow my closed ears
to suffer the lies of those

who knew not how to love

when breath raised my chest
breathless, motionless, at last
don’t mourn sunset and dawn

nor cover me with heavy earth
when burdens no longer press me

let the butterfly spread her wings

carried on wild mountain winds
snowflake ashes falling silently
on hospitable evergreen needles

leave me then to the high places
leave me to the beasts and my god



4/15/2009 La Belle Rouge

“Poetry, Soul Whispers”

I'm glad I chose this one: I have the same idea: I want my ashes scattered in my favorite river or blown on the wind from atop Mt. Washington or spread on the waves I loved to surf-fish so much. That's the real celebration of life/death... the rest is B.S. for the undertaker and gawkers to make money and feel their tears

Hey aren't you Native American descent? Any of your writings reflect this I can read?
Later, michael

I want "ME and My spirit over our Ocean, to spread my spirit everywhere...
Your dying emotions are expressed so well here and so openly honest! I love how YOU thought this out and wrote it!
WRITE ON!

LaBelle,
I didn't think it would get better than those fabulous opening lines, but it did, better and better. This is one of your best ever, simply beautiful.

Darlin Belle, I so admire your outright honesty in telling things as they is... How many of us, I wonder, would just love to seize this poem and store it away for the appropriate time, so that those who have certainly constrained and undermined us in the name of "love" could be told of how we feel. I am literally blown away by this... I think you have expressed something of how I must feel every day of my life for reasons which I struggle to understand and yet feel deeply in my soul. Thank you for freeing me... at least in the amazing words of this write which would make such a stunning epitaph. You touch on tender spots of personal sovereignty for those of us who in all ways desire to be free and yet also know that our nearest and dearest can't (and won't be able to) possibly hack it. Some of us are earth, some of us are air. Perhaps the problems come when earth and air are yoked together... I am deeply moved. Bless you xx

how suitable, going to the skies like Tinkerbell, white of innocence, pure of thoughts, and yet, giving a sad goodbye, like a moth flying into the sun.
Perhaps leaving in a high place is where his heart rest.
