Death shall bring Colours
when death may come
strewn petals of dead roses
freely cover the silent stone
markers of one who once was
when the harvesters of souls
pass by and collect debts
of life lived through uncharted years
colours of rainbows soothe unfettered terror
freedom from mortal coils
unwanted yet inevitable
will bring hues of sorrow
in rainbows created by tears on eyelashes
Death shall bring Colours
on the journey to the stars
with dusts of the cosmos
a galaxy of brilliance
and there we be.

Ohh wow, Grace! This is more than just thoughts, this is on the spot, in the moment real, emotional, raw, darkly beatific poetry.
I was taken by -
"in rainbows created by tears on eyelashes"
The colours juxtaposed against the stark reality of death but as a glimmer of hopefulness, imo... and that last line, almost had me in tears of a known reunion... My goodness I enjoyed this much and felt it deeply.
Such a terrifically job well done.

Beautifully said Grace, with an organic eloquence that is captivating, subtly speaking of many facets of being, it seems to me, from the microcosmic to the macrocosmic.
