Original message
Death sometimes comes in a dream
Holding me tenderly,
Whisp'ring the delights awaiting me
In that ineluctable euphoria.

Too soon, when my waking nears,
His lips caress my cheek,
And Death gently implores my patience;
Despite my desire, it is not yet my time.

The dream...the sweetness of it
Loiters around my heart
Until my mind begins to wonder
If I'll have to nag him to take out the trash.

4. Aww shucks...
Thanks, Peggy!

I'm not a pro. If I were, I'd probably come down with writer's block. Thanks for your encouragement, though! :D

8. I will!
But I think I'll save it for tomorrow, when I'm in a less fuzzy state of mind.
