Death is the final enactment, the closing of the curtain, the last act,
 It portrays quiet silence, the ultimate ending,
and the end of the road on the map, 
 Good-byes and merry farewells to friends are no more to be heard, 
Our former laughter, tears and joy on Earth are broken in the deep
 penetrating silence by the singing of a bird,
Where do we go from life's pain, happiness and continuing saga of 
 eternal torment?
Will we join the radiant angels or be only in a final resting place where 
 we are sent?
The beauty and pain of life have ended. At last we are in peace and we 
 weep no more.
