What, Me Worry??

Some people are concerned They wonder and they fear Just how and when they'll die The thought, it seems so ***** Not like we have a choice And so I'll tell you why... but it's only my own voice... I've been dead before, I'll be dead again, The thought of fearing it To me just seems inane Whether it's nothingness after Or to a heavenly place we go The thought to me seems dafter But I don't really claim to know So I worry not about things to be Of which I have no control Just accept what's been doled to me Peace is my only goal So I thank Alfred E. Newman On each cover of Mad magazine He gave me this great title Such wisdom is rarely seen... So sleep in peace my friends out there It's all in God's great hand Life and death two sides of the same coin I hope you understand And now I've said my piece So off to bed I go Is sleep a bit like death? That I'd like to know Cause sleep is my favorite time No pain, no worries, no cares.. Someday we'll all find out At that time when God shares What some consider the ultimate mystery The big answer that they seek Go to sleep this evening May God give you a peek!
