Notes About The Poem

" LIFE'S BATTLEFIELD " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of African daisy

The Deterrent

Fear of death,

Is nothing else but God's deterrent

To prevent Man from deserting the

Battlefield of life!

So sorry Demetrios, you and I know heaven is a much better place then this earth. Someday we all have to walk through that door. It is a process that we all go through to reach a better place designed for us by God. Our trust in him gives us the reassurance of conquering death where we will live forever in Glory with the father. Know that Agatha and Nikos if Christians have walked through that door almost at the same time of Gods perfect planning. Peace they will have my friend and no more pain.

Your words are so true Demetrios, the only consolation is that they are both together in paradise. Again my condolences to you Tom
