Starward commented on: Merry Christmas, Mom - Part IX by randyjohnson 4 years 49 weeks ago
My heart goes out to you. : My heart goes out to you.  When my own mother passed, in January of 2013, we parted unreconciled.   The great British actor, Peter Cushing, was a very devout Christian; and when, during an interview, the interviewer offered condolences on the loss of Cushing's wife, Cushing replied, "I haven't lost her, I know where she is, she just isn't here right now."  Both Cushing and his wife believed that Death, for Christians who do not die together, is like taking separate trains to the same destination:  the trains will run on different schedules, perhaps at different speeds, but ultimately arriving at the same destination.     You seem to write quite a few poems about death---and elegy is one of the most ancient functions of Poetry, and that gives your poems a connection to the classics.

Hope All Is Well: Hi redshirt. So many have left. Poetry is my best mode of saying so I don't stay away long. I may die, pushing 72 and feeling it, but the poems come yet. Miss you very much. I know I am difficult always have been that's a part of my genius. I stand apart and observe which is a good thing to do when most of the people around you are doing it wrong. I have six years of university I've published over 13 books and I'm not sure whether or not that solidifies my place in history. Should do it, the question is whether or not we are going to have some history for it to survive in. That said I wish you well and happy holidays. Do something for a kid. I have an extensive library and it was difficult to part with my children but I sent books to two different families in my family for the young people; for the teenagers who don't read much. I sent jigsaw puzzles and a note from great aunt Stella. It was a fun thing to do, to share my love for books. I have collections, a complete set of Samuel r Delaney, a whole lot of Laurel K Hamilton's 11 I think and Tom Clancy's I love his work. . Off to listen to jazz. Snow and rain tomorrow. Joints complaining. If I die, I am glad to have met you. . Lady A .
