#6 of Poetry

This poem is about the cycle of life to death, and how our lives imact everyone around us, and that because of this, we never truly die.

_Cycle_

Death is only the beginning   
Understanding of Life   
This is not some preaching of a god   
Not some telling of religion   
It is merely the truth   
Death is only the beginning  
  
What we leave behind   
For those to learn   
Our bodies left behind  
Enrich the earth around us   
Our minds left behind   
Those left to learn  
  
The experience of the old   
Becomes wealth of the young   
Closure of death   
New openness in life   
Realization is key   
Unlock to understanding  
  
Death is not truly death   
It has a role to play   
Performance in inspiration   
Song of compassion   
Death is not just the end   
But the beginning of Life.
