Questions of Death

Jerry Reynolds

 

Somewhere in my mind
I know I have been stealing time
From the reaper silently summing.
Will I die for the person I was
Or the person I see coming?

    I like this one Jerry. As a 73 year old 'lefty' I am living on borrowed time since the average life expectancy for left-handed males is 67.3 years (for right-handers it is 76.3 years)!

    That time is but a moment in real life.

    The problems I find with questions Jerry... I get a different answer from whomever so I ask the question

    Great question though
    Only you can answer it

  • L. B. Mek

    'ask not: where or why or when
    and fear not - how
    just simply know, my friend
    you'll be missed - on one side
    and greeted warmly - the other'

    inspired by one: Jerry Reynolds
    yet again!
    (this may be the most valuable words my feeble mind may ever weave)
    what an inspiring gift you choose to share, dear Poet
    thank you!

      Wow L.B. I am humbled. Thanks.
