Get Ready

Written 20 December 2023 Get Ready Poetry Contest Sponsored by Shadow Hamilton Get Ready Let us get ready to depart With smiles on our lips and no tear when our journey`s end is near; Without any pangs in our heart. Let us prepare to move away And give younger ones their way; Without gleams of fear on our part, Let`s be ready to quit this world When tired has grown our own soul; Just before the bell knells its mark Let`s leave our daily dreary strife After leading a moral life; After living a life that`s smart, Let`s suspend our human voyage In search of a higher new phase; Let us get ready to depart Without any pangs in our heart Without gleams of fear on our part Just before the bell knells its mark After living a life that`s smart.
