Death

Death is an indissoluble shadow that follows us all.
Earthly life being transient and fleeting as a bubble,
A heavenly abode of sheer bliss waits at our final call,
Terminating life from every worldly care and trouble.
Happy we should be for a life eternal when our joys double!

Such a wise and moving acrostic this is talented soul, i would like to try this form too! It looks interesting and very fun! You did this effortlessly, and in a seamless manner making your lines flow. Death is inevitable and scary, i fear losing loved ones its always so painful. I especially love your rhymes here and also how you’ve written “ fleeting as a bubble “ “ bliss waits at our final call” gosh this is soul hitting and so profound. Every poem of yours speak volumes, and they make me feel

Death is definitely an indissoluble shadow and the grievances are immortal.. And true, we should make the best of every moment as long as we are gliding on this earthly crust, but sigh, if only life let us actually 'live & inhale'.. Hope, love and faith can reverse hours of gloom but only one has the resilience to strive.. A brilliant take for the contest dear poetess, sending you so much love!

Most of us still don't want to go today or have a fear of death. I read this story once where a woman who was still quite young with young children and had terminal cancer, but she had a devout faith. She was lying there still and totally quiet one evening when the hospice nurse came in who at first thought she had died. All the sick lady said is what if there is nothing. Thanks for sharing this poem with us and for dropping by my page. Sara
