All A Man Can Do

Image source: Private collection

All a Man can do
Is die well
Because in the end
Death comes to us

So give and take as much as You can
Don’t treat life like a plan
A line in the sand
Rather make a stand

For something You believe in
Whatever it is
As petty as it may seem
As long as it’s clean

From the heart, deep
From within Your personal keep
Your friends close
And visit the sea

Die well
Each day
Close Your eyes
And so it begins
Again

With appreciation
