Life and Death

They go together

By Whimsical Wanderer Published 4 years ago 1 min read

To sequester any-day death, any day

One must perforce

Escape everyday life, every day

It is an afterthought to

A foreshadow

To leave any-day death, any day

One must perforce

Capture everyday life, every day

It is a still-life review

A moving-picture presage

To abandon any-day death, any day

One must perforce

Seize everyday life, every day

It is an auspicious portend

A fortunate telling

To relinquish any-day death, any day

One must perforce

Grasp everyday life, every day

To comprehend everyday death, any day

One must perforce

Live any-day life, every day

It is an imperative of the soul

A calling of the spirit
