A breath away,

From Life...to death,

A sigh and then a bye, no fragility could have handled it carefully enough,

But a rope was given ...one hand clenched another embraced,

One too short the other everlasting.

While the train whistle faded

eternity etched it's infinite imprint.

oh yes,
death and life hold hands through our whole life -
it enters in when we don't want see it and it leaves when we do -
we embrace the insanity and yet we behold the Holy at times...

You would think with life so fragile, people would not pass the offered rope.

I can remember in my younger days being told to do something, and my answer would be I can do it tomorrow. I know, I am not promised tomorrow.

==========================================
Friend, you are very dear and a very sensitive soul -
life is so very fragile, but unfortunately, many are often offended by it and
by His Loving, Forgiving, Grace and even take offence at the beauty of His Holiness...
sad, but so very true, we have seen it happening more in our own families and of course,
in these 'end-times'...
we've learned that our grief can only be endured by our Faith in His Holy Promises -
it's truly a definite part of our having to accept the decline of the world and it's ways...
