What's Life About I Often Wonder

What's life about I often wonder since we are mortals born to die Many claim that the soul lives forever whilst some will tell you that's a lie And as for the World of the hereafter none of as yet has come back for to tell Of the paradise referred to as heaven or the World of the damned known as hell I am not a religious person and to any God I do not pray Though I do love the Goddess of Nature my last remains in her bosom will lay What's life about an often asked question a question that's puzzling to me We are born for the scythe of the Reaper like all life forms of land and of sea The God I believe in is not male my Goddess a beautiful she Known to many as Mother Nature such beauty she has for to see 'Tis true death is part of our existence and the thought of death we only fear Though most people pray to their God for mercy when they sense death to them is near But what's life about I often wonder our greatest achievements seem small When to the sharp scythe of Nature's own Reaper as mortals we are destined to fall.
