Today, I’d like to challenge you to make a “Personal Universal Deck,” and then to write a poem using it.

Sorrow
My mind turns toward sorrow
on even the sunniest of days
thinking of the ashes
in a cremation urn
but the salt water breaks the spell
the plants with all their brilliant colors
connect my mind
Warm hands caressing my back
Able to find peace
falling asleep
only to wake to the fact
that eternity is not real
and fear of the unknown
can be crippling.
