A/N: Hey everyone! So, this poem was the first ever good one I wrote, inspired by the picture (to the right)! Please do share your comments! Constructive criticisms are welcome! :)    

Upon this drenched and dried land,

Worn and tired, here I stand!

Memories echo in me,

Of my childhood of glee,

When I used to be so careless and free,

When I used to wonder upon what I would be.

And now I stand here,

With my return, so near.

I place my burdens behind me,

And squint my eyes to clearly see.

A stick in my hand to guide,

I can barely hear him stride.

And each minute by which he nears,

My heart thumps with little fears.

But I can no more wait

For this is meant to be my fate.

'Are you ready?' asks the Death God,

Alas,I have no option but to nod.
