Now That You'Re Dead Comments

Nice work! Its' a gift to be able to write what you feel. Ngaio Beck

i respect you for putting out such a personal piece of yourself for other people who know nothing about you to read. it shows that you are a stronger person than most.

Matt, this is a poem everyone can relate to. Even though my father died when he was 70 and I was 39, there were still things that I needed, or perhaps, wanted him to teach me, maybe even if it was just how to be at 71 or 81, or 101. The lessons that he taught me up to then will always be with me and my son who adored my father. Nice work.

A great piece of affection and emotion.

Sad and grief but good poem though.
