A Journey

The trip of a lifetime?

The scenery is infinitely variable

Experiences along the way

Common to all who journey

Birth, life, sadness, elation

Not an errant  path are we plodding

The quest of each

To wrench life eternal

From the swoping scythe of death

Is it that bad--like a scythe? Hope mine isn't. But, will it be death? Is that the right name? Haunting words.

Yes, "Seize fate by the throat" as Beethoven said, lol. Or Dylan Thomas's "Don't go gentle into that Goodnight," or like your good poem :) :)
