Some people don't think that simple is better but I do. This poem is proof that it doesn't take "big words" to express the message you have for us. Your words are understandable and it doesn't take lots of them to get the message to us.

We should not fear death since it is a part of the life process, we are born, we live, we die. We need the sleep to rest our weary bodies, to keep the strength to live, to continue to expand our feelings and emotions to others around us and live a happy life until we do die. Nice work.

I agree with Sylvia 100%!

I could ramble on and on about this wonderful little gem here but Sylvia said it all... just beautiful! I'm nominating this piece!

I agree. Though you know, life is eternal... it seems that we are stuck on repeat at times. And other times, I don't think people fear Death, they just fear to die and having to start again...

I like the simplicity of your poetry and the way you
focus on delivering a message.

There is truth and its always the simple poem that delivers a good message like this one!

Fear not Death

^^That is always the easy part to say but when the time comes there is always fear; but I guess when you have submitted your heart and mind to God then fear is removed.

Deep sleep to rejuvenate

^^I was thinking about this sentence a lot. Yes its a deep sleep but not the one where you can awake from; but the one that awakes the soul for the next birth.

Once can live a joyful life when they learn the truth of life. Basically, do good while you alive for those deeds carry forward to your next.

Well I can go on and say more...instead I'll leave it at this. A good thought for the day..take care.

Hmmmmmmmm
nice but not agree.
