Mortal Remains
Too soon, too late
Death bolts the gate
To seal your fate
Sudden and swift
The final drift
In a grim sift
Here in a while
A lifeless pile
Dead body styles
Heed then the tint
Where life now mints
Live well clear hints
Do all you can
To drive brave plans
In lovely trends
There comes a time
For shattered chimes
When things don't rhyme
Go on your way
To live each day
Just as you say
Remember this:
Joy dreams of bliss
In actual peace
Too soon, too late
The final date
To sum your fate
