Sense Sonnet - Acher

 As I lay Dying

As I lay dying, I did tell

My children that I wanted to

Go back to my hometown to dwell,

Resting in peace there where I grew

Up, and wanted my kids to go

Along with me so they could note

The ties to past that I did know

Of that place faraway remote.

My children promised  that they would

Fulfill for me this last request.

Their assurance made me feel good

As I slipped into final rest.

My children, too busy I guess,

Sent me back home by U.P.S.
