Life After Me

As I ponder the unknown
I ask why death must
take everything
including life.
How dare it think this world
can exist without me?

the stone bordering a busy path
sailboats floating out at sea
the loud cheer at the game
the smile of a new born baby

my zest, woes, spirit, tears,

And having said this-
the world will go on,
when I'm gone.
