Description Grim Reaper, tell me:
Who's leaving today?
Did I hear you crying
As down they did lay?
Such glorious morning,
Such gloomy a chap,
Collecting the men's blood
And draining trees' sap,

Grim Reaper, tell me:
Why do you mourn?
Why are you weary
And why are you worn?
Come here, I'll give you
A pat on the back,
I'll try to make up for
The smiles that you lack,

Grim Reaper, tell me:
How do you cope
With guns at the ready,
The knife and the rope?
As men drain their cups
Poisined up to the brim,
I will make your day
Just a little less grim.

I like to think that since the first germ since the first single cell life form came to be the grim reaper has been fighting a one man war against life and so far winning (little humour)

Ive always had a soft spot for the Reaper. He TRANSPORTS souls he doesnt OWN them. I always wonder if there were a couple people he just didnt want to reap. All said, a well written poem!
