Was the Last

I awoke to a glorious sun rise And a sky shades of red and of pink The sun was radiant like a huge orange globe Oh it truly was magnificent Then slowly clouds would appear Wonderfully fluffy and white Like snowcapped mountains So high in the sky How I wanted to climb them so I did ‘twas just I On reaching the top Never wanting to stop Looking down The whole world I could see The Moon surrounded by so many stars With Saturn and Jupiter Venus and Mars For what more could a gal like me ask Then I discovered This day was the last As my soul rose above Leaving all those I love For today was the day that I died Not scary at all ~ truly beautiful New adventures for me lay ahead With my eyes open wide On this day that I died Not my last ~ but my first day instead… Contest Was my Last Sponsor Silent One
