IN REMEMBRANCE OF THE COVID FALLEN ON THE BEACH OF HUMAN ANGUISH
‘Every second of every day a tsunami of mortal loss crashes blindly onto the beach of human anguish driven by howls of unimaginable pain…’
I AM NOT GONE
I am not gone, while you cry with me
I am not gone, while you smile with me
I am not gone, while you remember with me
I will come, when you call my name
I will come, when I feel your pain
I will come, on your final day
It could never be, that we, would never be
We shall always, be together, forever
I AM NOT GONE
‘To be eventually calmed by the huge cornerstones of family, loved ones, friends… and for some, religious beliefs…’
RAINBOWS ON THE MOON
There are rainbows on the moon
There are clouds in outer space
The night has started mourning
Since I passed away too soon
There are rainbows on the moon
There are colours crying in tiers
The solar wind is wailing
Since I passed away too soon
I shine with the Northern Lights
I shine with the waning moon
I shine with the shooting stars
Since I passed away too soon
Now one zillion candles
Are shining all around me
One zillion and one candles
For my life on earth to see
