Say yes to death




Say yes to death

Say yes to death
Embrace the end
coming surely as satin ribbon
Flows through fingers feeling
The spool suddenly spun

Say yes to death
Embrace the end
Not as some sorcered spectre
Scythe sullen syncophant

Say yes to death
Embrace the end
As a gentle misunderstood
Reminder
To shout joyously
Yes!
To
Life
With each borrowed breath

  1. Clever! Your imagery at the beginning was beautiful, so magical and the space photo really tied it all in! I loved it~

  2. I love the philosophy in this - conscious living/conscious dying does put the focus on the present moment and "each borrowed breath". Beautiful.
