Don't grieve for me
A Nonet Poem19 total reviews
Comment from Susan Louise Gabriel
This is beautiful! What a peaceful description of a transition from this life to the next. It was perfect for this poetry form, with the words becoming fewer per line until the last ended in one short word, much like life draining from one's body.
Thank you for sharing!

Comment from Patty Palmer
This is a very nice poem about death. Death seems so final. LOL I don't want to die. I'm too nosy to leave and miss out on all the gossip. Maybe Ann Landers writes a daily column in the Heavenly newspaper. But, like you say in your poem, when I die don't grieve for me because death is just the next adventure in life. Have a great day!

Kahpot,
Was this an entry for a blind contest? I did not receive notification of this beauty. Wow! Impressive! I must admit your first two entry lines are my
favorite and your presentation is another wow!
"of my Lords
request"
You probably need a possessive apostrophe
in "Lords request" > (Lord's request.)
Love, love,
Anna

Comment from Susan Larson
In so many cases we grieve not for the one who died, but for our own selves. They say funerals and memorial s are not for the dead, but for the living. But, we either honestly grieve, or go into denial.

Comment from Boogienights
A wonderful and heartfelt poem, it's human nature to worry about those left behind when we finally leave. This poem expresses this sentiment in a very eloquent way. Best of luck in the contest. :)

Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
I find this poetic. The order descending, to speak of ascending. The shape is pure pleasure, and the content is a treasure, as is the form. I would like to see this as a double nonet, where it rises again, for all these aesthetic reasons.

Comment from Bill Schott
This nonet, Don't Grieve for Me, has the proper nine to one descending syllable formatting and notes that those who don't know of Heaven can only mourn loss.

This is a very well written work flowing seamlessly within the constraints of the Nonet form that you had to work with. I liked the line "recalling many life journeys."
