Death - haiku


the clock’s second hand
chops away bits of life
until none is left

~~~

the river meets death
when it merges with the sea
yet it willing flows

~~~

if death had a voice
it would be melodious
soul suddenly free

~~~

  2. Each works alone as well as together. My favorite is the river/sea revelation.

  3. Free from pain and doom I hope. I rather like the river merging with the sea.
