Written by a funeral director
Cancer is not a disease that ends straight away,
It is an enemy that attacks the body day by day.
Sooner or later things will come to an end,
Stay calm and fight it ,is the advice I send.
You could be fit and well for many years,
Living your life eliminating funeral fears.
Developing a healthy relationship with death.
You are still alive valuing every breath.
Some days cancer seems to be not there,
Other days it returns with a sudden flare.
Enticing tears,stress and moans,
Spreading mysteriously to flesh and bones.
Plan ahead for your funeral trip,
Whether to be buried or cremated, is my tip.
Plan a funeral way ahead,
You cannot do it when your dead.
Choose a funeral director you can trust,
To be buried by myself is a must.

Topical and terse - a timely reminder that we all need to prepare for
eventuality of the final goodbye while we can.
