If I knew I was going to die… (poem) by Ed Matlack on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on April 8, 2008

Good write, my husband faced his death with dignity and could not do enough for me. That was his choice and I admire him and go visit his grave site often for now and hope to always. He was such a fun loving guy and laughing all the time and well liked by friends and neighbors. Poem is good one and one I need right now in my life.

Good questions, I think like me and so many, you'd want to spend more time with the ones you love....which is what we should be doing now anyway...

This is great. I think I would continue to love
God and others as I love myself and keep hope for
peace on earth.

Oh, my...you are so thought-provoking this morn, Ed. Is Ruf nipping at you?
Well, we all know we're going to die...the question is WHEN...and I don't think I'd want the answer to that :o)
"Would I see the world for what it is
Or would I just accept it as another of
Life’s type of quiz…"
How 'bout if we all try to make the world a better place than we found it? One small step at a time...

Good things to think about, Ed, and I agree with Dawn about the last two lines being my favorite.

Peace,
