Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
Whatever we were to each other, we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the same easy way you always have.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as it always was.
There is absolute continuity.
Why should I be out of your mind
Because I am out of your sight?
I am but waiting for you, for an interval,
Somewhere very near,
Just around the corner.
All is well.
Nothing is past.
Nothing has been lost.
One brief moment and all will be as it was before..
Only better.
Infinitely happier.
We will be one,
Together,
Forever.

Lovely dear.... excellent.... the way NEW becomes OLD....
feeliings of initial days change.... but continuity of life is
there death is just stepping over to next room......!
Again the hope is alive .... may be tomorrow... the old and
dead feelings may revive the feelings afresh ...renewal
of fixed deposits with higher rate of interest... Ahh..Lovely.

This one's better:
The was a young monk from Le Trappe
Who contracted a dose of the clap.
He said "Dominus Iscu,
Oh why won't my piss come?
There's something gone wrong with my tap."

mediocre..
here is just my advice
in poetry it is really essential to be using your imagination..
like you're directing a movie and you picture scenes in your mind..you can also mix up metaphors and idioms, contractions 'n omissions. careful tho not to get carried away or you might lose your point..
hope this helps
