Lost Amidst Poem by Juan Olivarez
Lost Amidst
Lost amidst the joy of birth,
The smiles, the laughter,
The cigars being passed out,
The numerous good intentions,
The cards and letters,
The phone calls and well wishes,
Is the unmentionable truth,
The child, will one day cease to be.
Lost amidst the tears of death,
The sorrow and the pain,
The floral arrangements,
The numerous good intentions,
The cards and letters,
The phone calls and well wishes,
Is a simple truth.
A human soul is now at peace in paradise,
Such is the human condition.
