I Met The Reaper (She's A Nice Girl With A Groovy Smile)

Clouds morph past all around me,

A thick layer of mist surrounds me,

Feelings of peace, never cease,

Enlightenment deep inside me.



The flowers bloom around my head,

Sunny skies defeat all dread,

They bloom and blow, wither and grow,

I’ve found peace, just like I said.



Sitting on the green grass lawn,

I close my eyes and then I’m gone,

She comes for more, she’s at the door,

The Reaper, man, she comes at dawn.



I’m more than thrilled to meet the Reaper,

I just go down to see and greet her,

She says “stay there” and the vanished in thin air,

And that was the last time I seen her.

 

Pretty cool man, like I 've said before, you've definately got some talent.

 

It's good...I like it.

 

Cadence is good and the rhyming on time! I liked the way it sounded in my head. Morphing clouds - very good description for isn't that just exactly what they do?!? Boy that topic could be a poem in itself, I know I've spent many hours just dazing and dreaming at the clouds...I'll be looking for more of yours...
