Death Has No Sting.

Goldfinch60

The Sun rises in my life,

The day beckons to me,

Showing me the way towards the light,

That light will always be with me.

Even in my darkest moments

The light will guide me towards brightness,

The brightness that is my life.

This glorious earthly life will end,

But Death has no sting,

As My Spirit will continue in life and light.

That life has come from the infinite past,

And will go on for, and to, eternity.

    A fine and comforting write and pic Gold.
    From the hymn 'Abide with me' -
    'Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?, I triumph still if Thou abide with me'.

    • Goldfinch60

      Thank you Orchi, indeed "Where is death's sting?".

      I may put up an older poem of mine about Deaths Sting that I put on FP some years ago.

      • orchidee

        It's a suitable description, as a bee or wasp sting is nasty, and is..... well, a sting!

      • Michael Edwards
