Departure 6

DEATH LAUGHS #6 A stillness calm presides right here, A soothing balm in tunnel clear. Soul wakes drowsy with glimpse and hint, Death laughs easy with sparkling tint. Masks left behind in dying sleep, A strange new find as mourners weep. Death holds my hand and beckons brave, A sure ascend beyond earth's grave. ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 04 February 2016 Singapore

Dear Daniel: Thank you. Glad this poem delighted you. This is part 6 of a 7-part poetic movement of "Departure" which Death brings a sure transition from Life to the Afterlife, as I see our journey on these earthly plains. The poem is religion agnostic! Leon
