I shall embrace your tired bones Withered by rigours of hell To reach the heights of heaven Where you 'll happily dwell- - - -Death does us a favour by freeing us from the pains of human body.A marvelous portrayal of Death in a positive light.

A poem with a profound message in the form of an onlooker's view on death, which highlights a plain truth that every being has to face in the material world - Shall let you return to dust, For all that you are worth. Quite enlightening. Congratulations for being the poem of the day.

Remnants of life is beneath the soil. Rooted, buried, submerged in the wrath of time. Your poetry cast death as a cosy suberb for mortals to rest till infinity. Loved every word.

This is also very beautifully penned. By looking at the death as a passionate turning point in one's life is something brave and very much philosophical. I would like to treat you as a philosophical writer having beautiful ideas in mind. It is a valuable saying in one of the greatest holy books in human civilization that; At your birth you come to this world crying While you are crying the others smile, At your death you leave this world smiling While you are smiling the orhers crying Thank you for sharing.

Death is the result of having lived our lives, everything we've learned and experienced ends when we no longer live. What is the moment between life and death filled with, how does it take us from our lives on earth and where does it send us. Your poem brings up many questions of death, but there are no answers in life. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
