Only The Most Arrogant

Only the most arrogant can claim post death of us what lay ahead We live for a short while and are forever dead The sheep or the dog or the cow may not know they will die But are they any less mortal in any way than i? Many believe in a life after Earthly death of a heaven and a hell Yet any deceased person has not come back to tell Of places for born again souls somewhere beyond the sky Why this has never happened one must wonder why Yet not many more cynical people than me I only believe in some things i hear and in all i do see To any god i never do kneel to for to pray But then suppose any two not the same in every way But only the most arrogant sort of a person with certainty could say That there are places for born again souls far away A heaven and a hell way beyond the stars Way beyond the planets of jupiter, venus and mars.
