This is life

I was talking to David last night

He observed that at the funeral and elsewhere

It was I  who had to comfort the mourners.

I wished I  were in a religion like the Jewish

where the bereaved are cared for

They  must tear their clothes and weep.

And they are comforted.

I got told,you were so dignified

but is that right at your husband’s funeral?

One man admired my dress!

I heard this music on the radio today.

we had it for you that day

and by chance it was already playing

I pressed the button.

You winked at me and then died… typical exactly….

the nurse used to open the window to let the soul out

so that is why I chose this even though to a snob it’s too popular.

Like food is too popular and water..

So was it a mere  coincidence?
