A FUNERAL OF CLASS : Sad Poetry

written by Poet : blue-rose


Our world has grown classless, casual

People attending funerals, wearing jeans

The poorest man, woman

Should pull out his only jacket

Her only skirt, dress ironed

In respect for the dead

Its hard for the few with dignity

Living in times politeness, became passé

A hand shake, common courtesy

Left in our twenty first century

Too casual on Fridays all week

Wearing tacky attire, few smiles

Fewer cards of thanks, letters, notes

Rarely, a thinking of you

Computer voices in follow ups

Sales calls from robots

Too few, saying please, thank you

Somehow those whom do-

Feel inappropriate, when appropriate

Living in a world of the classless

Dressing in a funeral of class
