Death: A Prayer

Death, approach with care,
Give my mother a few more days
So she may say goodbye to her family.

Death, applaud your share,
But, hold your curtain from falling
Just a few more days.

Death, append your eyesight,
Grant my mother a few more days
So her family may say goodbye to her.

Death, appease your appetite,
But, hold back your hunger
Just a few more days�

Erin,

This wasn't what I expected--it was much, much more. That's the way I'm feeling about my Daddy. Very, very well penned, poignant write; thank you.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
