Kelli White Poet Ballad

In the End

The sinners they sin and the believers they pray
But in the end we all die anyway
Some are cremated and put in an urn
Hotter than hell the bodies they burn
Others are wrapped and cast off a boat
Fishermans' blessing to carry them home
Some are fixed in poles up high 
Cast ablaze with possessions spirits ary
Egyptians are wrapped in cloth and honey
Cats and dogs they had gold and their money
One way is not better than others
All born the same the womb of our mothers

Keith Bickerstaffe January 24, 2016 at 5:30 PM A superb piece Kelli... ashes to ashes, and dust to dust ~ Genesis 3:19 KJV. from the womb we all end up the same way. Well done! Keith Keith Bickerstaffe January 24, 2016 at 5:51 PM I probably shouldn't have quoted the bible... I never do that as a rule but when I googled 'ashes to ashes,' part of the discussion involved mention of Genesis. I'm sorry if I offended you... with religion one can't be too careful. Keith Kelli White January 24, 2016 at 5:45 PM Thank you very much Keith. Tried to touch but not too deep
