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!

The Duty of the Strong
It is the duty of the strong-in-spirit to tell those who grieve to move on. Those who grieve must hear it. Otherwise, they'll think it wrong to change the direction of their heart's affection of love. Those who grieve the loss of a loved one must be reminded that they yet possess a heart that is full of love to be offered another. Don't ignore the desperate pleas of the poor in spirit who grieve. You must find the words you need to convince them to move on.
