Conversations With the Old

CONVERSATIONS WITH THE OLD

THE DAY MAY COME WHEN I WILL DIE
SOME WILL LAUGH AND SOME WILL CRY

YET I BELIEVE THEIR WILL BE
A LOT OF QUESTIONS LEFT TO SEE
UNANSWERED THOUGHTS STILL UNEXPLAINED
THE ANSWERS COME FROM THE CHILDS BRAINS
AND AS THEY LAY ME IN THE DIRT
KEEP IN MIND I AM FOOD FOR BIRTH

THE DAY MAY COME WHEN I DIE
SOME WILL LAUGH AND SOME WILL CRY


TODAY THOUGH I STILL LIKE TO LIVE
ENJOYING WHAT LIFE HAS TO GIVE
PROMPTED BY THE THINGS I KNOW
AND SEEING THE PLACES I STILL WANT TO GO

THE DAY MAY COME WHEN I DIE
SOME WILL LAUGH AND SOME WILL CRY

HEARING PROGRESS CREATES THOUGHTS
CONVERSATIONS THAT WONT BE FORGOT
GETTING A GLIMPSES OF A PEARLY GATE
IVE ENJOYED MY TIME AND DON’T WANT TO BE LATE

THE DAY MAY COME WHEN I DIE
SOME WILL LAUGH AND SOME WILL Cry

You write very well. Constructive critique: spell checker and read your poems over and over. Again I love what your words say. Nice job!
