Deaths Cradle

A hole in the ground
Waiting patiently for us
There is no hurry

Your title is intriguing and your haiku compels us to think.. the ultimate end we can't escape.. cradle in birth, cradle in death.. life is what happens in between these two opposite extremes. A meaningful and thought provoking piece, Carlos. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan

Something to think about. The future holds a place for our bodies. So crazy visiting the Paris catacombs and seeing what happened to the departed bones.

Thanks Sand. Cowboys around the campfire, "You see him there? Once he took all his clothes off and jumped into a cactus plant? Response "Why you do that crazy thing? Clint responded, "Well it seem like a good thing to do at the time." I don't remember the name of the movie. I am a fan of Clint.
