Death Is Near Yet I Welcome It Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

Death Is Near Yet I Welcome It

Rating: 4.8


Death is near
I can see black butterflies
Fluttering around
I am dreaming of
Beautiful angels
Every single night
My guardian angel
Is leading them to me.

Death is near
Yet I welcome it
For in its arms
I will be liberated
From the claws of
This war torn world.

Death is near
Yet it is welcome
To embrace me
I will see no more greediness
And feel no iota of pain
And sadness.

Death is near
The lark and nightingale are singing
The cuckoo clock is ticking
And the radio is playing
My favorite song
'In The Arms Of An Angel'.

I welcome death
For I will be with my Lord
Who will give me eternal life
A gift of blessedness
And everlasting happiness.

3) ....This poem you created for your beloved cousin IS a masterpiece. This honest, tender poem full of love is heart wrenching and it causes me crying through and through, I cannot help it. Your cousin asks for death to come, so that he will be redeemed from all pain. God is love and He loves your cousin so much that He will fulfill what he asked for.

Death is the final journey. A peaceful, happy journey if it is towards God. Top level imagination 10+

Indeed, death is like a parole, a temp freedom. It lets us be with our Creator for a while at least though we have to return to complete our karmic cycle of evolution. I liked this poem so well written.
