It Was The First Of Fourth Poem by Riley Choma
It Was The First Of Fourth
Peace and quiet, it was the fourth of April..
The phone rang and I sprang..
This news was unbearable..
Tears rolled down as I hit the floor, shattered, beaten and tattered..
This time was the first...
I was now all dressed in black, siting glossy eyed..
listening to the people sing away thier sorow and then not long after, standing by her grave.....
But as I placed a rose all teary eyed..
Down that gravel road came a noisy old chevy truck...
She was there that day, as if to say..
Don't cry, come on lets share one last laugh...

Solid imagery in this poem and I liked the positive ending. My mum told all us kids, the instant you survive your birth, death is guaranteed.....it's only a question of time. A true fact, plainly stated. Nice work....you might like to check out a poem or two of mine. Cheers!
