Casket

Casket by Adejola Joseph
Casket
Six feet deeper
Deeds of man is questioned
How did you live your life?
Time to give account
Every man will die
Surely, every man will taste death
But death is not the end of a journey
It's a transition to the unknown and to the unseen
Casket
I rejoice at the day I see my casket
It's a homecoming
Glorious homecoming
Casket.
