    End Of A Friendship

    I am standing...looking...staring
    Standing...looking...staring
    At the coffin.

    Beautiful yellow and red flowers cut from life
    Surround it,
    Dying flowers given to the dead.

    All I wanted was a hug, a kind word.
    A question that was not really a question...
    A soft word of advice:
    "What do you think?" 

    Instead...
    These soft words became hard
    And something went wrong,
    Teriibly, terribly wrong:
    The words...the fighting...and finaly the death.

    Hope in the hopeless,
    Something never to come.

    Standing here staring at your coffin,
    I wonder if I really saw you,
    saw you at all?

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
