The Journey

 

I've just been on a journey

To farewell a dear friend

Who took a final journey

At his life journey's end

 

I have a pre-booked ticket

Of that there's no debate

The only thing I'm waiting on

Is when I'm told the date

 

The office Supervisor

In charge of ticket sales

Decides my date of boarding

Decides when I set sail

 

What mode of journey transport

He'll use I do not know

No-one's returned to tell me

How does this journey go?

 

What destination did my

Friend arrive at, make?

I guess I won't find out until

This journey, same, I take
