A Triptych on Grief

August 5, 2018 by Michael Guerin

I recently completed three poems about death and grief inspired, in large part, to a recent viewing of the movie Bright Star — and in particular this near final scene…

Those three poems (in order) are…

  1. the tolling bell
  2. the colors that i seek
  3. it comes like ice

To love and (therefore) grieve is human, perhaps our most human of emotional experiences. I hope you feel moved by one (or all) of these humble poems.
