Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Gulp

a glimpse of heaven
   a taste of hell
 that's what he perceived
   at death's dreaded knell

 summoned to court
   he gasped hard when he saw
 the judge and the jurors 
   his wife and kids ~
           his maw and paw

Andrew Fairchild August 24, 2022 at 11:43 PM YES! Those are the ones who will judge us, for sure. Those who knew and loved (or hated) us. Gershon Wolf August 25, 2022 at 7:36 PM Those closest to us, whom we can shame, embarass, or even give great joy! Thanks, Andrew.
