A very well-written poem. To be dead for the world means you are alive in heaven with the Savior. A new wonderful life without a doubt.

Your rhyme and rhythm and flow are great
it made me wonder how long I must wait
for my trip to the pearly gate
I hope it is not very soon
I would like to wait until the next blue moon.
You really did succeed
in making this pleasurable read

When it is your time to go it is your time.

No one knows when their time is up.

However, your friend will be okay, and will probably claim they are better just knowing where you went.

Should make an interesting entry into this contest.

This poem certainly follows the writing prompt. It is humorous and that is difficult to manage in writing on a topic that is generally serious. It flowed well. I would recommend it.

I loved it. The rhyme and meter were just irregular, yet orderly enough to offset any sense of being ordinary. Beautiful pic, and images that formed in my mind. Very good use of irony also, as I was led to believe that it was your friend that was going to die. This type of unexpectedness is thrilling and secretly satisfying, the type that I attempt to employ. The only place that I was unsure of was the very end; did you mean to say,
"dazzlingly pearled" ? I hope so, as this would make much more sense. And, if that is the case, don't worry, as I do that all the time in a hurry to post! Cheers, Darren
