Death Loves You Just the Same

Did you live a life full of faith,
Or perhaps a life full of sin,

Did your face have a frown,
Or did it always wear a grin,

Was your life full of meaning,
Or at times quite empty,

Did your life have many curves,
Or did things happen quite simply,

Whether life's successes gave you happiness,
Or life's failures caused you to pass the blame,

One thing is certain, death loves you just the same.

Hi Ed, stopping by to say hi. taking a second read. I shared this with my son who loves playing video games. All of a sudden he brought up the question of death, "if I ever think about it." I remembered this poem, so I shared it with him. Something about Death loving us the same makes sense. Have a nice day. SKAT
