A Life At An End (The End Of Days?) Poem by Gordon David

Hello again my thoughtful friend.

I’ve come here to annoy you once again.

Don’t worry friend I only tease.

I’ll sit and rest my aching knees.

We can have a chat, if you please.


Hello my friend, I wonder why,

When all around are happy, I just sigh?

Everyone will get their share.

Pizza Huts are everywhere.

Have you got a slice to spare?


I need joy, I want fun,

I’d like a home in the sun.

Don’t dwell too much on the past.

Life passes us by far too fast.


When you go to church pray for me.

Best wishes to you, and your family.

You teach your children right from wrong.

Let them play, they’ll get along.

I won’t ask them to sing a song.


Hello my friend, don’t be so shy.

Ballroom dancing, now that’s what I should try.

The entrance fee is very fare.

Ballroom Dancers Everywhere,

When you see them I’ll be there.


I seek joy, I like fun,

I’m just sitting in the sun.

Dwelling too much on the past.

Life has passed me by so fast.


Hello again, my faithfull one,

Took a chance and followed you to the sun.

You picked me up when I was down.

Made me smile instead of frown.

You are my favourite clown.

Hello my love, you know I try.

I can at times make you laugh, sometimes cry.

The children singing everywhere.

Music and love in the air.

The end is near, and I don’t care.


I found joy, I found fun,

Oh, at last I see my setting sun.


I’ve lived my life to the last,

It has just gone by so fast.

Live your life, and have fun.

Be careful in the sun.

Once another day has done,

Your family is number one…………
