If Life; Why Death Poem by Okim Otu

If Life; Why Death

Rating: 5.0

Life bursts forth in vibrant hue,
A miracle born, both new and true,
A heart beats fast, a soul takes flight,
If life, why death?

Memories we hold, so dear and bright,
Laughter and tears, through day and night,
Moments we cherish, forever in sight,
If life, why death?

Youthful dreams, like wildflowers sway,
Hopes and fears, in endless array,
Passion and fire, that never fade away,
If life, why death?

Fading embers, of a life well-lived,
Legacy remains, though the body's given,
A fleeting breath, a final goodbye,
If life, why death?
