We are all dying. It is true of the sinner, as well as the saint. We must prepare for life after death. Writing these poems comforted me when I was mourning my brother, Bruce (October 20, 1953 - November 3, 2010). I wrote Poems For the Dying 1). to encourage Christians, 2). to comfort the bereaved, 3). to make those battling terminal illnesses less fearful, and 4). to be a soul winning tool. Death creates an unexpected, soul-gathering harvest opportunity. There is life after death. Joy!

Let Me Go In Peace
If you think I want to stay here and be a burden, you are wrong. I have always been strong. I have survived a lifetime making my own decisions with the help of my Lord. I have sought His directions and accepted His corrections even under duress. He has led me through this Valley of the Shadow of Death, and when no one else could see my tears and know my fears, He was with me. And now that I am weak in my body and stronger than I've ever been in my spirit, I don't want to stay here. So please, let me go see Jesus in peace.
