I already have a poem published about my neice and nephew that died. It is "Butterfly and Star". But before my neice died and right after the death of my nephew I wrote this poem for him!!!!!! Check the date on the cheese the butter and meat What to get rid of, what is safe to eat. Charge cards, coupons even license plates Tell us when they expire by the dates. Our entire life revolves around time running out To be honest its something I never thought alot about Until the death of a young relative of mine If only I would have had some kind of a sign! Just a short warning that he was going to die, I could have been able to say my "Goodbyes". But with a sudden death it doesn't work that way And all the "I Love You's" its too late to say! If only in Gods creation of man One small thing would have been added to his plan. We could avoid alot of the guilt and the pain And in some, the actual feeling of going insane! You've probably already guessed just what I mean Yes, a simple expiration date on each human being!!!!!!!! Audrey Davis ------------------ [This message has been edited by denny (edited 07-11-99).] |
