THE UNCONQUERABLE HE

THE UNCONQUERABLE HE

He is an enemy to mankind

We are all afraid of HIM

He follows us like our own shadow

And comes to us only once

But we dread him like a dunce

He welcomes us cordially

But we reject his invitation rudely

We can not escape from his iron clutches

He searches us even though we hide ourselves in ditches

Man is unable to conquer him

He is too strong for them

Who is He?

What does he look like?

No body has seen him

But every body has heard about him

We reach him many ways

Accident-----

Disease------

Suicide------

Murder-----

Old age----

The result is the same

We inevitably embrace him

Like a bride hugs

A bride groom
