I wrote this one about a month and a half after "I MISS YOU" 6/20/07 The Reaper He came not long before the noon day rays. His midnight shroud and eternally deep cowl swept through in one swift breath. Slicing deep into the core with his glistening edged scythe. He seized it in his ivory talons. Abruptly wrenching it from its life flowing arteries. Holding it up as though a trophy from a victory won. Mandible cackling. He bore into the understanding with abysmal sockets. Tampered with emotions and tormented the senses until the mind was encased in an infinite gossamer tomb. I have come to understand the true horror of Death. He is feared for false reasons. God’s Angels came for my Child. The Reaper came for me…… |

Hi Tammy, I just read this (don't know how I missed it) and I think it is one of your best. The ending is so true to how I feel sometimes. Ida |
