Won't you help support DayPoems? s.10 - Donne's 10 RefutedBy TomsPoems21st CenturyDeath you're not proud, but so the story goes. Still men in foxholes make their final plea and chatter on like fools at Sunday tea. Why they in fear will shun your sweet repose I cannot tell. And isn't it the rose whose best is brief then withers by degree and soon into the heap of dead debris? Not I, not me, no I'm not one of those that kicks and shouts "Unfair, extend my time". O welcome scythe, your entry carpet's set. I'd call on you right now, and drop a dime if you would come and claim me in your net. So I won't think you deal me such a crime: 'to live forever is the greater threat.' DayPoems Poem No. 1284 Comment on DayPoems?
