The span of man's life was never
Here on earth meant to be forever
Fact is, we were born to die--
Some sooner of us than others,
But, it isn't when or why
But, WHERE that counts, my brothers
For if the loved one knew the LOrd,
Then be thou not afraid.
She is not lost, she is not dead,
But, only has gone on ahead
To wait in that fair land of dreams
Where all is pleasant and serene,
And life is like a peaceful chord
That's played and played and played.

PS: My first wife died of cancer and it took over 20yrs. to write about our experiences during the last days of her life. I have the short story on my Author's Den website. Please visit when you have time. Thank You!
It is a brilliant piece, thanks for sharing your work.
Then be though not afraid.
She is not lost, she is not dead,
But, only has gone on ahead
Awesome words James! When a Christian dies we should rejoice and not be sad. They are in a much better place than we are!
