Death Comes To Us All

Death comes to the living at the end of their life It happens to the husband and it happens to the wife It happens to the girl and it happens to the boy Some granted a short spell for to live and enjoy, It happens to the child and the woman and man Rigor mortis sets in at the end of our span And though they pray all the harder when they know death to them is near One would think good people who believe in the hereafter the reaper would not fear Still the latent fear in them till their own end does remain That death is forever they will not live again For all living things there's an end of life's line And the fate of the butterfly will one day be mine At the end of life death comes to us all We return to earth like the leaves of the fall.
