Always Thought of Death as Life

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Tuesday, April 8, 2008

I’ve always
Thought of Death,
Not death, Death.
As not life. Death.
As not death. Life.

I’ve never
Adored Life,
Past life, Life.
As not Death, life
Is not death. Life…

Erin,

Once you're gone, that's it. Not so for those, left behind - these words make me worry for you. Hope you're okay -

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

Sometimes we must force ourselves to see past the heartache and pain life can and does bring. See through the clump of trees in search of the forest of beauty....

Be always safe,
Karen

"I’ve never
Adored Life"

Thus have never gotten stuck on the life-death-life merry-go-round of science versus belief - endless debate with no resolution.

"I’ve never
Adored Life"

Adore, as in worship, avoids smelling the roses and new-mown grass, avoids the glee of holding a new-born baby, and avoids the chance to use life to the brim of its fullest to be the best that you can be.

Life is meant to be lived, not adored. Your circular poem has got some folks provoked into thinking! Excellent.

An interesting write and one might ask themself: Are we but a seed that passes through an interchangable pattern of life and death?

I love the circular thought pattern in this... and it is so true... Death is not death, but life...after death...

As you say [I think], death is a rebirth into a new life. This is my interpretation of what you write. Death ... life ... each a new beginning.

God bless you. Kathy
