The Next Great Adventure

As we reach our prime,
Whether living on a dime,
or sipping gin and lime,
we see the light approaching,
and feel our souls entwined,
in deaths embrace.

Fear grips our necks,
Money, struggles, love, faith,  sex,
is it all for nought,
losing all we learned and taught?

Or to paraphrase
a bearded great,
in his long, magical venture,

To the well organised mind,
is death but,
the next great adventure?
