Of Death Be Not Afraid

Don't ever be scared
just remember
you are like a coin
with two sides

one side is Birth
and
the other Death
be satisfied
you have only been brought
so that after a while
when Time has rot
you are also not forgot

as you must exit also

it's no curse
but a ticket
with which you came along.

The burden of living will be lightened
Death of course must come

Docs only help you
to naturally and quietly succumb

You've LIVED AND LOVED WELL
SO well done...

SECOND GUYS VERSION

THIS IS QUITE NICE
BUT ALL don't have heart attacks
those born in 1937 and 1942 (SOME/many)generally do
many are victims of Cancer too

I am ill since ages gone
but rarely visit a doc
until I'm well

just to confirm all is how I feel about me

Doc's smaller mercies

I treat myself only
my Life's experience mainly
else I'd have died
much earlier could be

God give soles to docs
to help souls

so that GOD
you at least
are not forgot

Amen

Comments

They no longer get a thrill

in playing scrabble
crossing dots and dashes
they don't like chess
its slow and boring
neither do they like to play
Bridge or Rummy
it's not like Casinos ... BIG Gambling
they don't like to see what on screens/reels is happening
and want to do it in real life believing
so now their only pass time is to continue in war
all lure
every thing is fair in love and war
so they enjoy the part they seek all the more
no punishing award

so give the guys a chance
as you plotted them
see their sensibilities
have led to your composing poetry's
life is just like this
TIME PASS PLEASE
why about others worry
lovely is your thought of poetry
So many eat cookies pop corns
and crispy chips
