My Star,
Do not be fooled by the stone you see
Saddened, whimpering and missing me
As it does not mean I am far from sight
It is a stamped ticket to my galactic flight
Few words would do whom I am about
Loving, creating and sure know my pout
My star engraved for our children to reach
As learning from you what I did not teach
Though facet of time is beyond your bend
I see you standing now as I did back then
Even if bodily I cannot be touched and felt
Live with the aces darling that I was dealt
A poker face I no longer have or need
Amity and love with no chance to bleed
Heat blankets me within a glorious light
Only bones lay beneath this stone cold site

Poetry: Write your epitaph
Without Christ,
She was Nothing,
Every waking moment was intense,
Now she is free from all pain and grief,
Never to
With pen to paper, I state my wishes,
Of sound mind and quite sane,
the following I name.
Not by individual because I know
by Bob Chaney
MY EPITAPH
two lines will do
no need to lie
just state when born
and tell when died
IN MEMORIAM
Stately mansion
Multi-storied
For sale or rent.
One owner.
Recently vacated.
Period piece.
Impressive bay window.
MY SOUL LONGS TO BE FREE
There are times my soul longs to be free
From this human body, know as me
It wants to go to a place
