As You Possibly Poem by Francis Duggan

The length of the longest lived human life in real time not a long span
So live for as long as you possibly can
Few live for a hundred years a century of time
Some even die as children and some die in their physical prime
On how long anyone will live for there is no guarantee
The one who wields the scythe of death will not spare you and me
Despite your material possessions and your financial success
Your life is the greatest gift you do possess
Your physical best years may be in the long gone
But the fear of death helps you for to keep living on
You may be quite wealthy and yours a well known name
One who does know of financial success and fame
But the one who claims the lives of the great and the small
Will come uninvited and pay you a call.
