I left the world Today

 No more trials and troubles

That I faced along my way

No more sickness and afflictions

For I left the world today

 

No more heartaches or sadness

Or painful words they say

No more tears no more pain

For I left the world today

 

No more fear of the unknown

Or worries of come what may

No more contemplating the future

For I left the world today

 

No more watchings in the night

Or fasting in the day

No more travailing of my soul

For I left the world today

 

No more longing for that rest

The wages of life I did pay

No more wanting to be set free

For I left the world today

 

No more waiting to see his face

Or hoping to hear him say

"Welcome home, my child."

For I left the world today

Thank you.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
