The Grim Reaper
Dark skies are falling
the reaper is calling
he sees the tears that are forming
He hears your cries from afar
he'll be by your side before morning
he wants to comfort you
before people start to mourn you
then he'll take your soul
and leave the shell of you
He's just like you and me
he's got a job to do
so live your life
before he takes it from you

A good philosophical poem
Don't think I'll go to sleep tonight Dave in case the GR calls! ! Very good and very true, we should live our lives to the full while we are still here.
Grim.....lol. Very well done.
Live your life before he takes it from you. O my dear poet.It is life. It is fantastic really. I love your poems. I see life in it I see love in it. I see commitment in your poems.
A great write, with good advice, we should all get the best out of life before the reaper gets us.
