The Way To Go

The way to go Most people would prefer to die in their own bed Clean sheets, warm blanket and a soft pillow for their head Some people might like to go reading a good book Maybe in their favorite chair in some quiet nook There are those that might want suicide Because long suffering pain they can't abide Many death row prisoners await the deed That might get their rotten souls freed When it come to my end and I have a choice The way that I have chosen would make me rejoice Off a bloody saddle I'd like to slide From my favorite mount in stride By Mike Francis

You are obviously a "horse person," judging by the poems I have read today. Interesting write. Most of us won't get the chance to choose the way of our own demise, but I'd be quite happy to die peacefully in my sleep when the time comes. Hope that will be a long time off yet though! Regards, Robert.
