Do Not Fear Death Poem by Practicing Poetess

Do Not Fear Death

Rating: 5.0


If thoughts of death make you afraid,
Do not see Death as something to dread.
It comes to all men, just as birth
Was used to place you on this earth.

As natural as being born,
It will transpire in eve or morn
For you, 'twill be quite effortless
Just trust in God, and in Him rest

Your times are in His hands, He says
He knows the number of your days.
And when your time on earth is done,
Your spirit home to Him will run.

Just as a baby, with God's help
Knows when it's time to leave the womb
For you, death's journey will be like
A walk into another room.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem was actually written on 19th January 2017, before I ever joined Poem Hunter as a member.
It was written to give comfort and allay fears of dying. Did we have to do anything to get ourselves born? No. And in the same way, when it's our time to go, we can rest because it will be taken care of.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Like birth death comes to every one. Death is a truth and there is no need to fear death. Accepting truth is wise ever. It will transpire in eve or morn and we have to keep trust in God. Eternal father gives us guidance and joy, and peace and love. Death's journey is like a walk into another room, that is womb of new mother where soul enters after death of previous life. This is an excellent poem philosophically penned....10
