I would love to die

I would love to die
a painless death
no doctor at my deathbed
perhaps I'LL die at home
all alone in my lonely room

But I wish not to be isolated
from the birds and bees ah
my lovely twin puppies
they enamor me.

All else I feel seem to be waiting
when this ole specimen will be going

But I'm sure the poet world will miss
so prolific a poet that they know me to be
some still reading my poems
may cry reading my

MOM'S SMILES and WAIT FOR ME
Young boys will enjoy sucking
JUICY MANGOES hopefully

But pray
I die peacefully silently

no one wants to die a lonely struggling death and I sure don't! Hopefully it will be peacefully and surrounded by family. I give you fair warning here. From this point forward, I will not respond to any poems that require your death! Not kidding!

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

This poem upholds a theme of death surrounding it. The persona is predicting a smooth death that requires family presence.
But why this thought of death now? How old are you now? Is it right to predict how you would die silently?
Anyways, only you knows the reason and the reality of this elergic poem.

in their life, people are inundated with thoughts of their own mortality. There are more wishes than there are people. I hope that you do find your version of peace at the end.
Since knowing you through your writing, I have gained a unique view of character I will remember for some time.
If you have the inclination, I would like to read something from you about angels.

...so like my lost dreams...the flood

I'd like some-one to "be there" at the appointed time,
hopefully in the summertime, just to wheel my sorry arse
out into the sunshine and give the flies a head start.

Hope it goes well for you when you snuff it ol' chap !!!
