Rest in Peace - Songs for the Dead - 2. Remembering Cognac69

What a beautiful tribute to your friend.

Tho his poems were about the brevity of his time here, they pulsed with life.

My condolences on your loss and those of his other friends and family.

I missed a lot of the interaction with cognac, but when I did, he was warm, funny and kind. 

His poems say a lot about him, given what we’ve learnt...and yours pays him a wonderful tribute. 

He will be remembered fondly.  

 

Thank you for sharing, tim. 

 

Thanks for reading them Def, i do this for me, to help me process, but i hope it helps others .. so they can write something or come back to remember.

Thank you for sharing cognac’s poems with the rest of us.

And, thank you for using your gift with words to say so eloquently what many of us would like to say, but cannot. 

 

  

Thank you, Reader.

Thank you very much. Your comments are kind and welcome.

poetry is how you process things like this, it's on your profile page poetry is how you write your world.

having this here is, as you said, a small and appropriate memorial to cognac

i'll treasure the memories that were made talking with him

and am grateful that his son trusted and shared the others, his dad's final gift to us

thank you tim, cognac, and cognac jr

thanks very much molly ... he was a wonderful man.. always kind and funny . thanks for your lovely comments.

Thank you, tim - what a great gift to see your poem and Cognac's two poems. It seems like the best way to honour his memory.

Your poem spoke to me. I liked what it said. What a nice tribute to post Cognac's poems as a remembrance. I especially enjoyed his first poem. Thank you.
