The Living Said  It seemeth such a little way to me  Across to that strange country - the Beyond  And yet, not strange, for it has grown to be  The home of those of whom I am so fond  They make it seem familiar and most dear  As journeying friends bring distant regions near The Dead Said  We are here, finding little but existence  Staring at your world of breath and air – the There  Far past, only permitted glance of glass fence  Seeing just cause, no viable way to share  Hard but not solid distance, a depurative mist  This knowledge not for you now, but does exist © Piyali Basu/PJ Poesy 2013
