This is a 3 Part 'Tercet' saga... (To be Continued)...

DEATH...

(Part One)   The Question...
* What tis death I was asked one
   rainy day...
* My answer, as I ponder, tis hard,
   dare I say...
* Death could be of life, dreams,
   and Hope's persay.

(Part Two)    The Answer...
*DEATH, can it be friend or foe?
*From enduring pain, I must let go
*In Agony, physically ailing, tis so.

(Part Three)    Death...
* Death comes visiting, as a thief,   
   on a stary serene night.
* One day, you are like fine wine,
   the next, a Cancerous plight.
* Weak and ailing, tonight, I
   must let go of this fight..

DEATH - The End.....
