What a great surprise for us all would be When death the mighty we manage to see And as soon ourselves into death's arms throw Realize we don't end there but still grow! © Demetrios Trifiatis 23 June 2018 10-10-10-10

Hello Demetrios!! A perfect rhyme here on a common circumstance that confronts all of us eventually in this life. Your poetic precision on this theme is wondrous. Yes, Death does come for all of us, but it is a transition stage to the greater ethereal reality and to eternity itself. Superb Work!! Cheers and Best, Gary

DT, I like where you went here. An interesting and inspirational write. My personal belief is death is a door. And there's a door at the end of every path. What's on the other side has much to do with what path you're on.

Yes, my friend, L.M. death is the end of every path as well as a new beginning! Very true that it depends on what path we are one! The question is : Will we open it with a pleasant anticipation or with a sense of fear? For those on the right path it is just a joy to open that door! Thank you for your kind visit and profound comment!

So hard for mortals to throw into death's arm..though we will all get there. Perhaps, only a select few get to the destiny you describe. Either way, you my friend know the ways of the almighty.

Yes, my friend, Tom it is true! After posting this poem of mine I recalled a true story that took place on the Acropolis in Athens which I posted just now with the title: THE GREAT SURPRISE A TRUE STORY. Thank you so very much!
