Simply dead...

Can you still spy the sky when you die,

do puffy clouds of acceptance get in the way...

does eternal sleep lull us all to a state of abandon

pure as the driven snow before blackness ensues,

will god look you in eye and send his regrets...

for such frivolity and volatility assaulted upon our lives...

or is dead,                     just simply dead?

This I'd like to know...

This I would like to know too....
Is it 'Game Over' or do we get a time extension somewhere lovely?

The funny thing is is we really will never know until we are dead… we can only just stick to our beliefs till then… as Paul Thorn sings "Whatever you believe you might be wrong."

You give much to ponder here Moonbeam.

So this one begs the question....what is life after death? Are we forever in eternal sleep or is resurrection apparent. Thought proving to say the least

And if death becomes nothing, what is lost? Philosophical and engaging, this work resurrects the question of the ages and does it with eloquence and grace. I truly liked this one. Myrna would have been proud of you.

OH Myrna, I miss her, where the heck did you leave her? Thanks so much Dave...

[DrD]

The last time I saw her she was entering ahotel with her new lover just as I was coming out with my lover on my arm. She had the nerve to come up to me and shout, "I finally caught you, you no good SOB! And I brought a witness to prove it!"

[Frieda P]

Haha good old Myrna, she was always smarter than you doc! ;-)
