Thank You, Life!

If I should die before I sleep,
Here's who Id like my things to keep...

My dear wife gets the final say,
Should she live beyond my day.

I leave behind my worldly stuff,
For Death has called my lifelong bluff.


My things are few, I let them go.
Their lot in life in life I'll never know.

But if my dream for these things few,
Find a treasured life anew,

I'd wish my art to find a friend,
Enjoyed until the very end.
