Mark Koplin Poet Rhyme

Journey-Final Destination

Do you know how to arrive at heaven’s gate?
                     Can you read a map?  Can you navigate?
            Have you checked your tires and topped off the tank?
                 Did you change your oil and stop by the bank?

           Have you seen your mechanic for that check engine light?
              Did you inspect every bulb, do they still shine bright?
               Did you take out the garbage and wash every dish?
                   Did you forward your mail and feed the fish?

                     Life is a journey with a destination ahead.
                   Start off each day, by first making your bed.
                  Enjoy your vacation, look forward to your trip.
           Read your paper every morning, especially the comic strip.

                           Life is short so always be ready.
                      Maintain your spirit, strong and steady.
              Avoid breaking down with your family and friends.
                The gate will be open when your journey ends.
