If Death Be But the Final Cut

11

If Death be now the final cut
With no path to Heaven's door...
Thou I've never had the courage
To believe there's nothing more.

So forgive my celestial musings
And lay waste not my bugaboo
But allow me one small favor...
To love and pray for you.

                  12

Forgiveness be a wondrous thing
With no stone to weigh it down.
It knows no age nor time of day...
It knows no proper noun.

It floats upon a summer breeze
And makes light the coming storm.
It dances in each fireplace
To keep the masses warm.

But forgiveness holds no treasure
If not effected and applied.
So slather in gluttonous quantities
With a conscience as your guide.

                  13
 
There seemed a hellish wintry bent
As the storm pounded through the day.
The winds were whipping fiendishly
As our snowman walked away.

With a feral dose of helter skelter...
Nature seemed transfixed from normal rest
Leaving one to mull and ruminate
On the perturbations so expressed.

              The End

Bugaboo: Area of concern.
Perturbations: A disposition that is confused and quite upset.
