Life and Death

Life and Death don’t go gently into that good night fight, fight, fight with all of your might stay here as long as you can we really don’t know what awaits us on the other side that mysterious event hopefully is far down the road and many years away the experience of death awaits us all we can’t get out of this life alive and bring some of our good stuff questions are many but no answers appear do we have a solid body or is it see through are we able to eat a good meal or do we ever eat or drink again is there a day and a night or is it always bright do we dress in clothes or do we walk around in the nude that would seem so very rude will our pets greet us who have passed at the rainbow bridge do we still have sickness or pain or does that go away like sunshine after the rain who will greet us on the other side is it our guardian angel and Jesus alongside our family and friends or will it be the devil standing alongside our family and friends we will all pass that is foretold in history death is still a great big mystery and pass we all will but I’m not looking forward to that thrill each and every day we get a little older death stands patiently at the foot of our bed to take us away the moment we’re dead will I see you on the other side my hope is Jesus greets me with love and open arms Dennis Davis 77 years old this year February 12, 2017
