All Were There But She.. Poem by jodlizbeth dominic

People gathered so much
To see one more time
Lastly, even after death
Her smiling-laughing
Attractive talking?
She was there,
But no more...
Flow of people
Men, women, children
Such as friends, relatives and
Neighbors, persons from various fields
With wreath and Bouquet
A celebration look unknowingly
Coming soon in mind
Even if all were in a gloomy mood
Some of them were crying
Telling things sorrowfully
Expressing sentiments
As such a get together of something
Light in full bright in that night
Suddenly, I felt
Even, the home where our
Special gathering always have had
Look, she was not in the group
Not at all feeling her presence
Not hearing her voice
Not there her charming smile
She was there now
But no more...
Really, sitting near the departed
Was she an young smart one
No time to wait
After awhile
She will be taken to the graveyard
Where to be welcomed
Then the last kiss
Came to an end of that mother
Can console her family
Nobody, except creator's views
Next day when I came to the church
I told that she, resting in the graveyard
Then, thoughts going on us
She was there now,
But no more...
Incapable of doing
If lose somethings
What may be we
Only breakable decaying statue
All are forced to live with the body by birth
But by death forced to lose it
What will be
The existing factor after all
She was there now,
But no more.....
