FUNERAL PLANNING

Death words in the Alphabet,

Choose a brass, plastic,

Bronze or wood Casket.

 

Flowers and a Grave Liner,

Viewing and wake and, 

Estate Administrator.

 

Embalming, Knell, and Service,

Visitation times,

And Rigor Mortis.

 

Whatever our grief Demands,

Coping is eased when,

Funerals are Pre-Planned.

   This is a sandwich rhyme which follows an aba rhyme.  Rhyming words are in italics.  2015©BeverlyStock
