As the Days Tick Away

sleep, so death, do I beat thee every night, softly, without a fight? Death, so sleep, do I dream thee every day, softly, within my plight? God, So Holy, do I praise Thee w' every breath, Softly, with you beyond m' own death?

Hello, Daniel, I am really surprised that I am the first one to comment on your poem. I'm new here but I also wrote a poem after my son died many years ago: "A Rainbow Glitters," so I was looking to see what others said about the subject. I like your poem, especially the ending. I love and praise God, too.
