Nick my dear friend :-)
For you I guess I should look up for some poetry?!
I wonder what would you prefer?!... some folk or some written by a poet?! Hm?!?
Let me see what I can find for you ;-)
Well, I would invite you for an un-usual walk: come and join me in a Cemetery - I'm not kidding, and further more you will enjoy it - LOL
"Come ye all together, I’ll give you plum brandy, Drink this glass To
forget your sorrows I’ll give you brandy from the barrel, Instead of
one, you’ll see double. When I was alive I used to make strong brandy I
left all this When I was 54."
"This is were I rest Moldovan Gheorghe is my name. I worked a lot with
horses As long as I lived And now I come on a horse back To bring
firewood for sale To those that have none. But I have come to the end
of the road And have come to rest I would have liked to live longer And
not come here to rot. I left this world at age of 59. Died in 1986."
Are you smiling? There is nothing wrong with smiling, is there? But what about if you’re
in a cemetery and these are written on the cross of the people who
passed away? This is how it is at Merry Cemetery a totally unique place
situated in Sapanta, county Maramures, NW of Romania.
People’s short stories like short fables, tragic stories are told with
humor. This is what this place is about & what makes it unique is
making fun-smiling about the end, our end & adding humor where
usually there is only tears, pain & black.

I think I should put-up a thread about this! It is the way Romanian tradition sees relationship about life and death.
This is what, our popular ballad Mioritza, is about!
I hope you enjoyed this strange invite for a walk!
With friendship,
Anamaria
