Dance of Death
Contest by Robert James Liguori
Me moving too fast in senile decay
Death rings bell alarming continuous
dancing and prancing simultaneous
at the exit gate of my life, I must say.
My journey of life has now come to an end
Enjoyed life and completed duties
Life offered enough opportunities:
Some are utilised, more unattended.
Life seemed real when I felt in every step
but now visualising dance of death,
ready to breathe any time my last breath
Little scared, how death will come,in which shape ?
So far the challenges of life to meet
What is awaiting crossing entrance gate
of death for human as ultimate fate.
Only scary feeling, how death will greet.
Death is dancing in full rhythm threatening
as the dance of violent black widow
whirling furious eyes crawling fast or slow.
My favourite precious life lost its meaning.
On boundary of Life I am to wait.
dark silhouette had shadowed my journey
tumbling, slipping, falling : Path seems thorny.
Watching dance of death approaching my fate.
