Channelling Carol Poem by John Duffy

A sweet voice came through.

(A lone voice whispers)



I know we've drifted like flotsam on the wild seas



Been pulled apart like Christmas crackers while I was in hospital



Before New Year's Eve



Yet always reuniting despite the courage which wore me out fighting



I'll always remember the love you all sent and I gratefully received



All those sweet exchanges



Conversations to encourage more heartwarming vibrations



But Life and its sharp knife decided to cut our cord



When it guessed what we had found and knew



Like a cruel warlord and so we were forever separated from its blackboard



Just think of me my old loves as I reside in here



No longer burdened with pain and fear of cancer



As you still all move across its many boards



And for a new addition to the Akasha records



Which I now know exists

I send this



Just know I'll never forget you



For you're all so special and I'll always try to visit



As long as the skies fill with clouds



Or turn blue



Forever remembering our introduction within these lines



Which may herald our final farewell kiss

Of all those

I'll truly always miss
