I’m happy to say that my poem, ‘Obituary,’ has been published by Spillwords Press.

I’ve started reading the pages at the end of the newspaper-
The one with the photographs-
Sometimes stamp sized, sometimes bigger
The faces look back at me
Some smiling, some solemn
But rarely ever sad
I wonder if they were truly as happy

or is it a one-off moment captured
and shared for strangers like me to see
