Acrostic: Bonus Time

2018, Olan L. Smith

Bless the gods, life is wonderful

Only thoughtless souls take what is his,

Nudges the stone and wails, I am coming soon!

Under the sod are wet bones and rotten flesh, while

Sour dirt yields a flower's renaissance.

Take the windfall, and thank each

Individual you meet―cry from righteous places

My life was rekindled long ago. Comprehend

Eternity begins with tomorrow's yesterday, as now sings.
