moments to live moments to die
for some life will end like that
will you watch death coming?
will you try to hide denying?
death waits for no man no living
soul death follows with perfect timing
claiming sudden the living dying dying?
at appointed time reaper life claiming?
time is measured in a cup half full half empty?
is the cup full with long life or down to last dregs?
a few precious last desparate sought drops sucked sucked out?
did you days given work well use your life time time life wisely?
at death knell will you regret crossroad choices will death embrace kindly?
time is ticking ticking touchstone testing testing character untimely finally?

Fur sure, now we see, now we don't! ....will you try to hide denying? ___Death goes everywhere and there is no way to hide from the death. Death doesn't need a VISA or ID to enter countries and home. I adore you as a thoughtful person. Any poet who thinks of the might death is sure a very special poet! I will rate with 10 for your unique thoughts. You know, I also posted a poem on Death before. I think, it is just a coincident. Keep the good spirit up, my friend poet!
