It Comes Once

Ordained special event at birth takes place The soul divine enters the life nascent Track at journey’s edge death waits to efface Time of living the two ends represent. End of the show scripted in beginning Puts the lights off, lets the curtains high fall Actors will disappear behind the wing They all depart hearing final last call. The things acquired would be staying behind A new journey hands void would then begin The loss of things life gave would grind the mind In the shadow of death last days remain. In fear we die all time facing unknown Death comes in life on time, we can’t disown. October 20, 2017
