Oh my friend there is something I really want to show you.
It's of great beauty and comfort.
In all these years, I have been keeping it safe.
It's made out of wood, it doesn't rust.
But I guess it's time to show you,
It's a coffin, where you will lay when you breathe your last.
Not to scare but remind you that we are just in a fleeting moment.
And so it would be the past..
How well are you living?
How well are you harnessing your talents?
I've got you a gift....and it's a casket.
