Lady, 60 this year. I'm using the phone to write reviews.
Perth, WA, was my home but now I live in Queenstown in Tasmania, where I live by myself with a cat. No children or friends, I spend my time renovating and trying to stay active. I do volunteer work.
My mother passed away in 2012.
I've published two books about my travels and poetry online through blurb.com.

Heh-heh-heh...

Hi. Firstly and foremost I try to correct spelling, then word usage in all of my reviews. Sorry for any confusion about my methods. Jan.

I'm sick and tired of being reminded of death every single day, on the news and programs on television. Celebrate life and what you have. Stop all this moaning about death.

Dean Kuch: Morning
by Jan Perry
Early morning starts my day
As the call of nature makes it's way into my heart
I look for you but you have left me again
Your shirt tails hang, your coat lies in a heap
Where did you go to this time as I sleep?
I look for your trail, a dish, a sock left there but once again you elude me.
It isn't fair.
As time moves on I realise you are gone for good.
No one can fill the cavern which is my soul.
Emptiness waits.
Each day brings more problems, new challenges
I must commit to.
Your leaving has left an empty shelf of sighs,
where laughter once rang true.
We all face the inevitability of death one day, Jan. And we all should feel free to write about those feelings too...even you.

|
| JanPerry: Thanks Dean. That's a good reminder and I'll keep it in mind. I have conveyed sadness in "Morning". However, I find death both morbid and terrifying, so I try not to approach the subject.

Oh Jan, dream on!
