Ken,
Thank you for your thoughtful attention to the poem.
In response to a couple of your apt questions, I think "death is not the
end," and, just as we are right now, those thought "dead" can be
"everybody's nightmare" and/or a recaptured (and continuously recapturing)
joy.
Your always friend,
Judy
