I like it. I like that you took things from the Bible and put them in your notes. You make death sound like a relief, which I'm sure it is under the right circumstances. You create a full picture, and hopefully in the end we make the cut!

Comment from dmt1967
This poem is well-written if not a little melodramatic for me. I liked the last line, though. 'All we can do is hope for a resurrection to a life with everlasting breath.' Thank you for sharing.

Very vivid pictures in these words. I respect that about you. I also like the way you point out that we leave fingerprints everywhere, a part of our soul everywhere. Thank you for writing a wonderful poem.

Comment from Healthyheartpoet
I enjoyed reading this poem very much. It has emotional depth, and your thoughts are expressed in a most profound way. Yes, death is the last enemy that we cannot defeat and our only hope is a resurrection. Mankind has lived under the curse of death for 6000 years and only the almighty divine can lift it from us. HHP

Comment from dejohnsrld (Debbie)
This is a very good poem, my friend.
Darkness has overpowered the light
And we find ourselves in a sorry plight
These lines ring so very true to me in the world today. I think we have lost any hope of becoming a kinder, gentler society. Well done~Debbie

Hi Sealord Hunter,
I never heard of you before or read any of your poetry until now. You are a great poet and I sure enjoyed reading this poem. I love writing poems the best too, but most of mine are spiritual/inspirational poetry about God, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Well said. Your poem reminded me of two things I'fe learned: (1) Life is always unfinished. (2) Faith is what will lead us to eternal life. Don't mean to preach.

Comment from Pantygynt
I thought I might as well have a look at the third one while i am at it. This has for me the best presentation of the three as you rail against the short termism of the human race, concentrating on minutiae while ignoring the important issues. As you put it so eloquently:
"We are in a haste to heal a broken bone
And we undermine and ignore the healing of a broken soul"
My favourite lines from this or any of the three poems of yours that I have reviewed. I shall fan you out of sheer curiosity to see what you come up with next. You could have a great future here.
