death-poem

my death-poem
too early to be written
late to be read

winds sweep the mountain prairie
unfurl waves through wild grass

no one came here
no one ever left

peace unstirring

I had an amazing sense of a peace, and a peaceful death through this poem. Made me feel very comfortable and neither welcoming, nor avoiding death... just being, and deaths movement will come when it does. Every line had an effective hand to convey the overall feeling. Such a lovely refreshing piece on death.
