Embracing Death

Death came creeping out of the mists, Embracing me with all of her might. Showing me there is a much better place, Where there is marvelous rainbows and light. Where God and Jesus sit on their thrones of gold, With angels flying with their magnificent gigantic wings. Where there is no hate, screaming, lying or crying, Just uncondtional love, music, beauty, and singing. Where people fall fast asleep on swinging stars, And others look down on us from the colors of the clouds. Where children smile, laugh and play happily, And magestic animals are scattered all around. The waves of the crystal clear turquise waters, Spray and splash my bare, tiny, little feet. Not a soul here ever goes to bed hungry, Everyone here always has enough to eat. Lord, if this is just another glorious dream sent by You, Please don't let me see the early morning light. If You decide to take me right here and now, I promise Lord, I won't put up a fight.
