It was about time –
20-16 took the life
Of someone I loathed –
Among the many I loved –
Good riddance Fidel Castro!

May you love singing

You’d think nothing of
Most of some celebrated
Photographers’ pics –
If it were your friends who took
And posted them on Facebook

Glaciers named after
Famous poets and artists –
Melting through the years –
To sea like their namesakes’ works
Flow into seas of people

If you were famous –
Don’t die on the same day someone
More famous died –
Unless you want to die in
Relative obscurity

Dear Peyton Manning –
I hope you will walk away
In a movie script –
Rather than end up walking
Away from a movie script

Notes to this poem…
What season is it?
It is too warm for winter –
Yet too cold for spring –
But we can’t call it sprinter –
Neither can we call it wing

Listening to songs –
By some recently deceased
Rock music legends –
For the first time since their deaths –
I feel I’m in Heaven, too
