Death, Where Are You

DEATH, WHERE ARE YOU It is appointed unto man once to die It is our destiny, yet many wonder why All alone and forsaken, we begin to cry Death, where are you For death to appear to take me away I must look toward that coming day Thus I assure myself, don't go astray Death, where are you When death shall finally open the door And life on earth shall be no more We will then end up on Heaven's shore Death, where are you Breathless, filled with emotions, we wait Death will come for me, there is no debate To take me to my home beyond the pearly gate Death, where are you 10 May 2018 Death, where are you Sponsored by Broken Wings

Susan, how kind, flattering, and humbling that you chose this as a fave. Most people view death as being horrible when in reality, it can be the beginning of the most wonderful that could ever happen to us. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and your support.

Congratulations on your win, Curtis! Death, the inevitable, will make its appearance that is for certain! So in the meantime, live life to its fullest, my friend! Hugs. Pandita

Thank you, Pandita! Yes, death is inevitable, however, it is only the beginning, not the end. We certainly should live life to its fullest with the firm knowledge of our culminating destiny being eternal life in the portals of Heaven with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. That is the beauty of it all.
