Oh how nice!

From the beginning
it’s a slow death
of seventy seven years
if you’re lucky,
and in the meantime
to relieve the boredom
we are told to live
every year.

All good things
come to those
who wait
from the life’s
expectancy room
the delivery was death.

Seventy-seven years.. Well, I too am getting there (74)

Thanks Lisa, this was a satirical write on those who think there is a better life if one can call it after death. Hence in the meantime we amuse ourselves with life waiting for death lol. Just my weird sense o& humour.

Yes, I sort of figured that
But also felt more meaning.
It seems we wait more once we are older...

And by the way, did they not tell you that pigs fly?
Death is a must, survival is a trust, failure is a bust, success is robust.
Excellent as usual, humorous, witty.

Thank you King Sami, yes some think there is a better life after death and we just have to live this one until they are elevated to a higher being. Lol

Wow! You are welcome Emperor Andrew. Even the Egyptian Pharoahs believed that too. But you are an Emperor.
