Anthrax

If you were exposed to Anthrax
and had only seven days to live
how many people would miss you
as you breathed your very last breath?

You may say the chances of that
happening are not all that high
so suppose you suffered an auto accident
and now it's your turn to die?

I think you understand
where I'm taking this rhyme.
Take some time to love and to be loved
while your life is not on the line.

Because dying should
be a time to have loved
one's around and not
be a lonely time.

LIfe is a precious thing that many of us tend to take almost for granted until something happens to us or someone close to us.  And one thing i wonder about, is if anyone will miss me if i was gone.  And if so, who, and why?

Thank you Elmo and Randy...
I was just thinking of how suddenly these poor souls died from the anthrax and how unexpected it was.   There loved one's are probably wondering what the heck happened...so many have been dying unexpectedly recently...James
