written on the death of my father in the macmillan hospice April 4 2016 ' A lifetime is a flash in the vast phenomenal world ' Buddhist saying .



                              Hospice


           Midwives  of  another  womb  -

           That other door  -

           Captain and  the  crew 

            Upon  a  serene  ship 

            Sailing

            Untroubled  waters -

            Caring  compassionately

            For   your  guests -

             Delivering  them

            To  that  distant  shore

             ( The arrival  time  unknown )

            Until their  last breath

            When  the spirit flies  -

            Coming home at  last .
