Shed Me Not

Shed Me Not

A Poem by Mike Scinto
"

For my late grandfather, Frank (1921 - 2011)

"
Shed me not a single tear
My soul no longer lingers here
Just a body coldly lain
Upon this fleeting mortal plane
So while the flesh has gone to rest
The spirit can and will attest
Today is not a day to cry
I am not dead -- I did not die
