POSTHUMOUS POEM

POSTHUMOUS POEM

by John Yeo

As  you make your way through a curtain of green.
Through the leafy doorway at a woody edge.
You enter a world that is never yet foreseen.

A soft heaviness betrays the end of a dream
That was always there as a right or a privilege
As you make your way through a curtain of green.

Peace and understanding, with thought serene
Goals and promises without the need to pledge
You enter a world that is never yet foreseen.

Darkness outshines this world’s glossy sheen
As troubles dissolve peace is the ultimate pledge
As you make your way through a curtain of green.

Curious thoughts with mysteries as yet unseen
Blur into oblivion leaving nothing but a faded edge
You enter a world that is never yet foreseen.

Merged with the air and this world’s thought-stream
Consciousness departs as llfe becomes a fleeting dream
As you make your way through a curtain of green.
You enter a world that is never yet foreseen.
