Author's Notes: "Our Final Dance with Death," is a special couplet that I just finished today. I looked at this particular theme from some of my own philosophical perspectives concerning the notions and thoughts that may enter one's own mind when each of us as human beings reach life's end point. Hope, faith, courage, and a spirit of love seemed to embody the specific approach I was looking at in this instance. After all, in the end, we are all part of God's eternal cosmic creation and His unending love! Amen! (Gary Bateman - September 12, 2018) (Couplet)

Our Final Dance with Death
One way or another in this life each of us shall end up,
In that final dance of our life—that dance with Death.
Some shall experience this dance routine earlier in life,
Whilst others shall follow later in the course of a life’s run.
Hope, faith, courage, and a spirit of love may help each of us
To cope with the expected final eventualities from this dance.
It’s oft easier to wax philosophically about someone else’s
Circumstances with Death’s spectre rather than our very own.
Ultimately, one’s faith in Almighty God is the eternal power
Far beyond our death that beckons all of us to His Kingdom.
And so, this final dance with Death is our transition from the
Mortal Coil as our souls ascend skyward into God’s Kingdom.
Deus est qui regit omnia—and we are one with Him in the end.
Deus miseratur, Deus vobiscum—Amen! Amen! Amen! Amen!
