Eulogy Poem by Magic Box

Eulogy

Rating: 5.0


For my thousand dreams and broken wing,
As some final words what would you sing?

How gentle I was or how righteous my acts,
In midst of strong winds how I stayed intact!

How much I loved and how I’ll be missed,
How boldly I saw death and gently kissed,

What would you say? The truth or some lie?
While mourning for me when I simply die?

Silence will win where life looses the game,
Unspoken words cause tears from my frame!

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

And so you are joining the galaxy of the death poets of the 19th and early 20th centuries! Soon the theme will leave you, I am sure and you will continue to live and live. Your kind words that you won`t soon die have given an assurance that in fact you don`t like to die.. 20 plus and great disastrous ambitions to nourish! What is this magic or unwanted which craft learned by you? But may I give you a TEN for this? Thank you for the smile.

I liked this poem, but not the philosophy.Death -wish works as negative energy.In Rishi Aurobindo's writes I read this.Yes, poets express often that wish.I just can remember one line- - I want to cease in the midnight, with no pain...

Yes there are some people who writes their own eulogy. This act in itself is not as terrible as it sounds. It is just how they feel about life and are very contented with their lives. They know that God is the one that gives it and can take it whenever he so wills. To Magic Box you are a very gifted and talented writer. Please don't leave PH, your visitors, and of course your poet family. We love you and hope that you will always be a part of this family. If you would please read my poem A Member to Remember. This is a very potent write coming from a youthful Poet as yourself..

Magic, I loved reading your poet notes and thank you for being so open. Your Eulogy is superb which I have saved. I have been a Funeral director and a celebrant attending many Funerals. I feel at peace within the cemeteries yet I am not ready to pass on until my time is ready. For I believe I am really needed on this earth. Just as you are!
