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!

On My Way Home
Every day when I was working, I left work and I went home, sometimes tired and sometimes weary, sometimes feeling all alone. In my anguish and my languish o'er the problems of that day, I felt better as I made my way back home. Every day while I was able, I worked in the mission field. I knew that night would one day come, and I would have to go away. I can feel my time approaching. Soon Jesus will call my name. I'll be on my way to my eternal home. I'll be finished and my work here will be done.
