Cummings nailed it. Dying IS fine. We're all doing it a little every day from the moment we're born. It's that final curtain of death that's hard to take.
So sorry for Neal's passing.
This poem just steamrolled me. I only get it with my gut, not my mind. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Hugs...
A loving tribute.

Poets' words speak for us well indeed, don't they? Thank you for sharing.
I watched my dad come close this week, and I agree, death is a part of life. Now today, he's decided to hang around for a while longer. I hope he does it, too. Thanks for this poem.
Thanks for your thoughts. Doraine, I hope he stays around for a very, very long time!
Laura, steamrolled is a good word.
