Of Death

Of  it's praises you never do hear many sing 

But as part of Nature death is a natural thing

Like all life forms us humans are born to life to eventually die

The same for the blue whale as you and i

Of death many of us do live in fear

And  every day to our end one day more near

And the fear of death a common thing Worldwide

But what is to fear in something we cannot avoid

For the wealthy and poor in the end it is the same

For death does not respect either money or fame

As the saying goes it can come like a thief in the night

The fight against death always a losing fight

Time does not wait it keeps ticking away

And for all of us there is a last night and day.
