Life After Death

I hope there’s life after death A soul that exists with our last breath - Out of body steps It would be a shame to just die To become small dust motes in the light - No eternal life I don’t know what death will bring But nothing more is terrifying - I cling to faith’s wings 1/14/11 Susan Burch For "Life and Death...And Beyond" Contest

Yes, it is terrifying to die! But I believe we will live after we die and there will be a place for us to go! If not what can we hope for, what could bring us peace in our fears of death?! Fabulous poem Susan! I thought it very enjoyable! Awesome Work!!
