What Is Death

Death of the living with no success of growth slowly weathers Death of a forest and wildlife when it has gone up in flames Death of a heart that stops living without love Death of a crop that lives without water or sun Death of a book that lays there unread Death of a river that dries out Death of an ocean by plastic as fills with trash Death of a town when abandon Death of a country when selfishness’s invades Death is the sucking away on the soul 3/1/2022

Wow, yes. In each case, a death. Your pen paints truth dear Eve.

I see death more as taking off your frock to try on another, which women do without a second thought . . . .Aloha!

Interesting though, Rico. Yes, we do tend to make constant choices on what to wear for the day. We just want to look perfect, so a man won't stop looking.

Nicely done, Eve. A couple more: Death, to see loved ones again after a long separation. Death, to finally hear the angel choirs up close, unfiltered and in person. Death, to get a personal hug from God. Death, the soul no-longer plagued by the aches and pains of a troubled mind and body. But~I would rather be 20 again. What the heck.
