Death

Death I welcome death with opened arms. Not because I want to end my life, for life is a precious gift of God, but for the release, of my outer shell and the release of all life's anguishes and turmoil. Many fear death - for it's the end of life. I believe that it's just the beginning. Death is not to be feared, but respected. Don't ever fear what is to be expected. We are granted two things, a life to live and die for and a new life in the kingdom of God...

Yes I enjoyed it. Death offers meaning to life as it causes us to live with more intensity. I too have no fear of death, yet I am wired to hold on tightly to the gift of life and those I am blessed to love. Great first offering, I think you will fit in nicely here.

Such amazing truth in this piece, Gina. Death is perhaps a new beginning, more people need to realize that perspective. Thankfully, your first piece illustrates that. Great work. Check out my poems, might find some you like. Peace.

Gina, You're a poet ! Thanks for coming here to share. I view death in much the way you have so wonderful described in your poem, I don't think it's death per say, but the separation from those you love and constitute who you are . Keep writing
