note:safeways is a large shop in Engalnd The chance meeting by the fish stall I met death in Safeways She was by the fresh fish stall She motioned me to come away I didnt see him fall I wanted to stay and see The man laying on the floor He looked a lot like me But she pointed to the door Her bus was waiting at its station Death merrily rang the bell I quitely asked my destination She gleefully answered Hell arthur |

This was very good. And to think I first thought the "she" was just a nice saleslady, pointing your way to the door.  Live today as if it's your last. Love today as if it's your first. Lisa |

I love to be left pondering the different aspects of a poem, and this one did just that for me! Thank you. ~Somewhere in my heart I'm always |
