DOG AT A FUNERAL

DOG AT A FUNERAL I feel the wailing dirge around me—a sad soprano of loss Accompany a heartless coffin to the grave. Here lies my master, a broken will of wretchedness Soon to kiss the earth that shades his bones. He was a good man (dogs too don’t speak ill of the dead) But for his weal’s sake, death was too good for him. Amidst these human eyes that speak gaudy bewilderment and pity, I see a veil dressed in the leering laughter of hypocrisy. As soon, though, as the unhallowed earth beds him— Th

Humbly invitation

Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attend the funeral of Mikhail Gorbachev, the Soviet Union'

leader, the Kremlin has confirmed. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Mr Putin's work schedule would not permit him to attend the event on Saturday. He said the Russian leader had paid his respects at the Moscow hospital where Gorbachev died on Tuesday, aged 91. Gorbachev's reforms helped end the Cold War, but saw the demise of the Soviet Union, which Mr Putin has lamented.

Funérailles de mon meilleur ami

IN MEMORY OF ALL LOST DADS

Losing a parent when you've barely even had a chance to know them is just something else I cannot comprehend. I lost my papa just before I turned a year old. The only memory I have of him is photos...he only had 3 existing photos left behind. I feel and know I love him;...the resemblance and the smile he left portray the hero that brought me to this world. Every Father's Day is a celebration and a moment of silence for the man I did not get a chance to pay my last respect to. I know life would have been better and different if he was present. My life choices would be guided just by the presence of his being. My family would not be broken at such a fragile age. All I can ask is "Why so soon Daddy?" I know someone else was shattered more than I could ever be....My Mama. I write this because her strength has held us two as a family and raised a strong woman inside. Her hard work and sacrifices have broken boundaries. MAY ALL THE SOULS OF OUR LOST PAPAs REST IN ETERNAL PEACE.
