.


Now that she’s dead
She’s become
Something of a shrine

The friends she had
And they in truth
Were very few
Have found themselves
Now over the latter years
Increasingly in a crowd

Of course she had skill
Which in each year or two
Being with nothing
For her at all to do
Could make a poem

No one who was here and over then
Feels comfortable at all reflecting on
All those out of no where arguments
We always seemed to have

Of course it was difficult at the end
Yet now with a lover just down the road
I’ve actually found my afterward
Not all that hard

I was attracted by the title, because I love Cossack Dance (last time I tried to ignore that years had passed since my last "performance" I badly fell on my sacred bone (coccige) ... it took my breath away literally!).

As usual your poetical performance is a high level one.

Love,
Margherita
