Thrilled With Existence

As i approach the end

of body’s existence

i am filled with wonder

at the fullness of life.

Every bird and tree

enlivens my own life.

The magnificence of

a rhythmic universe

with all things cohesive

hones appreciation.

I have no reluctance

to vacate this body.

My anticipation

of cosmic consciousness

seems like a promotion

to becoming enthralled.
