Death, Take A Holiday
Holidays are for everyone
As we all enjoy vacations
A leisure repose in the sun
Is a working man's salvation
An active form of vacation
Is golfing, to name just one
While some prefer relaxation
To restfully have their fun
Water buffs go swimming
Hikers take their hikes
Gymnasts do their gym-ing
Bikers roll on bikes
But, suppose Death wanted to rest
And take off a week or two
Who'd invite Death as their guest?
I can't imagine who, can you?
Vacationing Death would be auspicious
For most of the world at large
Death's time away would be propitious
Life great without Death in charge
Let's send Death to outer space
On a most deserved vacation
Assuring Death more holidays
Would be grand for life's duration
