I love this!:

From one second to the next Love is our strength and honor, while we are still alive The body feels cold and stiff Searching for heart beat ... breathe ... pulse One, two, three .... one, two, three Please With eyes full of tears One, two, three .... one, two, three Fearing the silence ... and darkness Power failure ... I did my best 24.02.2017 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

A compelling poem, Anne-Lise. Life and death are separated by the ability to breathe. Sometimes life wins the struggle, but we have to accept the consequences of "Power failure." Food for thought, my friend. Excellent writing!

- .... What happens when power is gone .... it gets dark .... we feel helpless ... some get scared ... but what is it we are afraid ? - Thanks for friendly visits and comments, Carolyn :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Well, when I think that this poem may refer also to the reality of human existence it becomes a monumental existentialistic poem and for that give it a HUGE SEVEN my dear, Anne-Lise!

Anne-Lise, without the picture your poem would be sad but with it, it's hilarious! I got a good chuckle out of it. Blessings, Kim

- Our time on earth ... is not for eternity, Kim - Sharing love and care for each other ... do the best we can ... before the power goes out ... and heart stops beating - Thanks for friendly visits and comments :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
