My Life

The first time I was on a near death experience, I was 25 Cold winter day Lightly snowing Icy roads Frost coved windshields Car lights passing And gone Kids in the backseat Music going loud Talking on the phone Screaming and crying Wild like a zoo...my zoo On the freeway Signs flying by, Cars speeding past A deer in the center of my lane Sliding this way and skidding that way I heard the kids go quite then screaming Louder than before with fear in their voices It was all a blur We were on a thin sheet of ice and I heard cracking But the one thing I can remember the most was what I didn’t know How to make it all go away, how to make it back to normal Living my life the same, I don't think I can I don't really remember what happened Next but there was a flash of light and I shut my eyes, But when I opened them We were in a white room, bright with lots of colors Flowers, toys, big teddy bears 1 deer is all that it took For me to realize how Fragile and precious life is... I didn't know what happen but I think I had help from above...
