For everyone the bell will toll
And we will close the book
And shut our eyes one last time
The time to disembark
Has finally come
Fortunate ones may have time
To say final goodbye
For others
Start of a lonely journey
To a place unknown
No baggage to carry, none
Hopefully none left behind
For those to follow
On the same lonely path
When the bell tolls for them

Poetry is my passion. I am not a methodical writer. I have no set topics to write about. What I feel, perceive, think about, I will like to share in this blog. I open my mind to the world. Like the weather, sometimes my poems are cloudy, sometimes stormy. I always like to see sunshine streaming through the leaves of trees, so I hope I can share some of those sunshine with my readers.

Sorry you refuse to accept the possibility of a glory that awaits. Seems so sad. God said, “I set before you life and death. Choose life.” I can’t understand the lack of spirit that refuses to even look at the alternative. Sorry you are being burdened with heaviness that has clipped your wings. Glad you are going on a trip soon. Go in peace; go with God. Have a special time with your wife. Write her some lovely poetry. Share with us when you return.

I have chosen life and I am happy. Just want to ensure, if I go before you, that you feel sorry that you could not reform me😂. Don’t want to leave you with that baggage. Beyond that, who knows. If there is a heaven, I am sure I shall be there. If not, I have heard people saying that hell is more fun. But again, who knows. Have not committed too many sins in life, may be I shall get some opportunity in afterlife.
