I'm dying slowly.
That's all that needs to be said
to make poetry.

you are not dying
your living is just on pause
hang in there Dixie


believe in yourself
good things are coming your way
try to be patient


I have faith in you
you are much stronger than this
you will rise above

are on a road
neither can avoid traveling . . .

Death is part of life.
Breath beginning, breath ending
linked by each heart beat.

Passing shadows,

Cute little Senryu poem.  It gave me a giggle--is it supposed to?  Everyone is dying slowly.  We should keep that in mind.

Michael, thank you and yes I do need some chocolate and soon!

John, I'd be proud to be included. Thank you very much.

Susan my friend, I love those very inspiring senryus! Keepers!

Kathleen, thank you, you always come up with the right quote for me!

Alison, a wonderful little piece! I love it!

Bobby, well it wasn't really supposed to be cute but I guess some interpret poetry differently because of their own lives and that's a good thing. Thank you for reading!

Hope, thank you my friend. I agree too

Loved this! Gave me a sorely-needed laugh this moring.  Lifted the get-outta-bed cobwebs.  Truth and levity, together...wonderful my friend....

Dixie~
You know me ... always looking for a positive~

When I substituted 'living' instead of 'dying' into your piece, I found my positive~
Thanks for the inspire~

To savor each day
Living ever slowly
Magnifies this life~

Hmmm...

We were all dying
From the moment we were born
Life's the inbetween...

Loved this...

We are all dying slowly
Most simply disappear without trace
And then there are those
Like Passing Shadows
Who shall be indelibly etched in this place..
