OCTOBER 2023 POEM OF THE MONTH: Most Deaths Are Subtle Happenings
Most deaths are subtle happenings
that leave just stones to fade,
and memories from our loved ones—
before their own lives—weighed.
In a hundred years—forgotten—
no people left—that cared.
‘Tis only those that have done “Great”—
whose lives—that will be “spared”.
