Sir Edward Coley BURNE-JONES ‘The Morning of the Resurrection’ 1886 … Oil on Canvas – Tate Gallery
REQUIEM
Let it be
Words of Wisdom
Words of Solace
Just let go
Let it happen
You can’t stop it
Come what may
It will run its course
So as it goes
Don’t resist
Life will happen
Anyway
Che sera sera
I cannot stop it
So be it
I can’t change it
It’s past and gone
That’s it
Done and dusted
Destiny
Such is Life
It’s dead and buried
That’s Life
And Death is part of it
These words speak the truth Roland.

A lot to think about in this excellent and clever piece of poetry Roland.The last stanza could be a poem on its own.

Well Roland, I take on board what you say ” let it happen, you can’t stop it….so as it goes, don’t resist it”. Very interesting poem,how easy is it to follow? Maybe start with one stanza.😊 .
You are of course right.

Thanks for your comment, Miriam. I suppose my mood when writing it was fatalistic. I’m not always so downbeat.

Your poems often show your humour and love of life.
I believe we all see the darker shades at times.
