The Language of Us
Doris Falidis-Nickolas’ poetry beautifully captures love, loss, and remembrance, offering comfort to those navigating grief.
FOTI, Giuseppe. 19/01/1941 - 11/08/1994 Twenty five years Twenty five years We aren’t going to cry Here’s to you cheers From Caulonia, Italy To the east of Salisbury You followed your own advice ’Learn by watching me’ Given little on your plate You always talked straight ’Don’t try, succeed’ And you can be great Stand straight and walk tall Never did you fall Those of us around you Never felt small When you left, what a crowd In silence, heads bowed Your loved ones hurting Yet also proud After a quart of a century Are you in Italy or Salisbury We hope you have your feet up Smiling on what will be Love from Edith, Cos and Rose.
