When Death Decides


Death shows no consideration

No regard for age or time

No idea of inconvenience

Death will never change its mind


Death does not discriminate nor negotiate 

Has no favourites, feels no sorrow

When death comes for you

There will be no tomorrow

Death is terrible. Few think about it. At my age, it is like a spectre for me. But after death, there is a new life.

When death comes knocking don't answer the door. But if he's determined he'll kick the door in anyway, no one gets out alive. Tom

Now death has been done..Well almost to death many Lines from writers, that take your breath.' Yet in my new life' thats been given by Him, for Jesus tells me true Life is now mine..and for my sins.? i sense the Power also feel real life divine.' I've put death far behind me..its just the world now that holds strife.'

I say try to keep moving...it's harder for the blighter to hit a moving target. A sober write my friend but undeniably true. Dare I say, 'cheers'...got to laugh at the executioner. Take care my friend...
