How Quiet Death


How Quiet Death

Every moment
[D]ies a man[.]

                 ---Tennyson

An old man dies.

A life goes on:
A new child cries.

A life is gone.

I came like Water,
[A]nd like Wind I go.

Reminds me....

Of the song "Lightning Crashes" by Live. Short-n-sweet, and very nice, Chuck. ~Jess K. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~ "Everyone needs to believe in something.
