  • sometimes i believe in heaven

    #whim sh 35. CREATE a mandala. This was fun and I must say pretty therapeutic.

    1. Write a POEM in which socks and death are mentioned

    I wore socks to a funeral today.
    The barbershop chorus sang Swing Low Sweet Chariot
    The dress code was casual and bright.
    Actually I didn’t wear socks, I wore painted shoes.
    The preacher sang a song about dancing at funeral.
    The School Board Quartet mentioned The Music Man.
    And how the man who died was uncomfortable with the
    role of saying unkind words.
    His last name makes me think of truth.
    Death is sometimes a kindness.
    He sang until two days before he died.
    It wasn’t the cancer that claimed him,
    but the cancer treatments.
    Sometimes I believe in Heaven.
