Notes About The Poem
Written on October 18, 2025

Death Bed Poetry: Mozart
Famous last words: "the taste of death is upon my lips. I feel something that is not of this earth"
In the quiet thoughts, an inkling
where God stills the breath,
soothing away the shadow’s gloom
with a silhouette of the rising moon
and stars who reflect gentle truth
His love is alive and revitalizes,
resting upon heart and soul
in millions of notes – poured out
angels sing, expressions of pure gold
in the music, a newly found chord
awakening the spirit, stirring
fires beneath the sun’s soft glow
gentling the tears that believe
this isn’t the end – because they see
yes, they see…
unlike the finality that the undertaker vows
there is a reunion in the sky, a hope for you and I
awaiting in the clouds, the tears are no more
where there was once a fear, there is light
light that pours across the heavens, blessings
restoring the heart and soul, making us completely whole
remembering the sins of doubt no more
when we leave this earth, and remembering
the new birth…
winds take away the past, the shame
falls under the wings of angels who sing
amazing grace, the way has been made
when leaving the known, to go into eternity
there is the wonder of a hope, far sweeter
a hope of life when we meet with….
Jesus Christ, the King of each hope
The Maker of light – the most familiar friend,
Telling hearts who hear – there is nothing to fear
He is always here, forever wiping away each tear
Because there is love far sweeter than we’ve known
Love that sings its melody in the richness of a space
Which feeds the soul such amazing grace…
On and on… we sing His praise. Oh, precious Savior
How I shall praise You ~ forever and ever!
