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…
