THE TOMBSTONE VERSE
I walked to the gate of the old cemeterya visit to an old friend’s tomb
to tell him that I still long
for his friendship and days bygone.
Rows and columns of lifeless stones few very old and some so young. Death showered on all of them engulfing all hopes , aspirations and feckless shame.
One tombstone caught my eyes
written in gold all at once
the name,year and one more verse
“Alas, I had a second chance”.
“Alas, I had a second chance” the young dead said. Are we ready for that date? Close your eyes, what you read?
Life is short and work too many, look ahead and you can sense the ringing bell. No one gets a second chance when we move to lifeless trance.
Live life and sow good seed, think again, what it should read? “Wake me up and I will tell amazing things, what I did”
