Death Comes
Death comes in the shape of a maiden
To take me to eternal abode in tresses
Oh life offer me the wine in eternal tin
Beauty has come in love and embraces
Me in my disgust to bring eternal solace
I am enthralled, intoxicated but not to know
I don't know on edge how to keep grace
It may just be good to flow just with the flow
My sweetheart, my beloved love to take love
You be in your duty and let me perform mine
The eternal lover is so kind somewhere above
Let me come up to the expectation to be in line

A highly imaginative poem nicely and touchingly shared. Thanks for sharing.

I would like to translate this poem
Who can resist a poem with a first line like that? Death comes in the shape of a maiden! I wondered where you would go from there, but you chose a line of thought that would not ruffle the maiden hearts of PH too much.
Thanks Seamus O Brian
