Are the deeds of a man in his prime

You shuffle in gloom of the sickroom
And talk to yourself as you die


Life is a short, warm moment
And death is a long cold rest
You get your chance to try in the twinkling of an eye:
Eighty years, with luck, or even less






Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.



"If dogs don't go to Heaven, I want to go where they go" Will Rogers

The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own...

Just Think!
Some night the stars will gleam.
Upon a cold grey stone.
And trace a name with silver beam.
And lo'! Twill be your own!
That night is speeding down,
To greet your epitaphic rhyme.
Your life is but a little beat,
within the heart of time.
A little gain, a little pain,
a laugh lest you moan.
A little blame, a little fame.
A star gleam on a stone.

Robert W. Service
The Poet Laureate of the Yukon.
