Death

Dear Len, your poem crafted in the Andaree form is a powerful meditation on mortality and the inevitability of death's arrival. I loved how the imagery of death as a thief with claws sharper than a scythe is striking, evoking a sense of urgency and finality. Yet, amidst the darkness, there's a glimmer of hope as you urge us to lift our hearts to God, who tends to our souls and offers redemption. What a great reflection on the human condition and our quest for spiritual enlightenment in the face of mortality. - Blessings, Daniel

Hello sweet friend. I am so happy you are recently back online. Congratulations on this andaree form - a perfect theme nicely written. I find the andaree fun to write. :)

Dear Len, this is such a poignant poem and so well written. It’s very profound too, ‘ This thief comes anytime of the day or night’ . A reflective read. I love the faith, hope, in the line, ‘ So that at hour of death we find the light’. It’s so uplifting. Really enjoyed it my dear, sweet friend. Hugs and blessings to you xx

A clever but sad take on the reality of death and you did it so well with this for... I like the use of words and comparisons.. philosophical and deep in a sense.. Best of luck in the contest..
