Yesterday, Sunday

 


Yesterday, Sunday, off and on all day


thinking of friends and relations who


came before me and have passed away.



Sunday, an appropriate day for memories


such as these, especially for me not the


religious sort, a non-believer in a hereafter


of heaven and hell.



As a child I was raised otherwise, made


to recognize Sunday as a day of prayer,


praise and reconciliation.



One day inevitably, I too shall pass away


sans thought, sans feeling, sans memory.



But for today, Sunday, I give my thoughtful


prayers and praise to those, who at least


for now, live within the Memorial Eternity


of the Living Me.
