Tu Fu where are you?
Did you become one
with the Tao
or are you still writing
poems somewhere in
the afterlife?
I image you somewhere
with zithers playing
and orioles singing
and maybe drinking
cups of heavenly wine
with Li Po and other
great Chinese poets
and still writing beautiful
8th century poems
in celestial mountains
where dragons and
phoenixes decorate
crystalline skies.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
