This is a very dark write
A Day in Forever :Rhetorical Question!

Lily death banners,
Scent strong,
Almost pungent,
Spangled with stamen oozing sun pollen,
Noses drip allergic to the thought of death and pollen akin,
While eyes cry last goodbyes,
Pollen's drips into the valley of death's dark dreams,
A funeral dirge in sombre sobriety,
There is no fun in funeral,
The dead won't awake,
Their leave they do take,
Escape from the mortal trials,
Tell me,
Are we dead or just sleeping?

Sleeping so soundly,
Eyes shut tight,
Dis-budded as wedding carnations,
As wreaths laid on tombs,
Of those entombed,
Folks embalmed in deaths dark hallows,
Resting today in forever land!
