Above a cove lays the
golden vault of heaven.
Down below this rise
is the river of death.
The bright side takes
the good souls from earth
The dark side comes to
reach for the evil souls.
But Dr death will take all.
A heavenly angel arrives
to stop Dr deaths cause.
She beams with alabaster
rays to stop his evil ways.
She leads the good souls
to the white lights.
While Dr death leads the
evil souls to the darkness.
But the animals fight to
find there way through
the gates of heaven and
not the gates of hell

Firstly like LAdy Dementia says this is really unique! The refrence to ' Dr death' gives a reality to what death is! I love the phrase alabaster and the refrence to the cove! Poets barely use such lovely phrases these days!!
MY FAV LINES:
But the animals fight to
find there way through
the gates of heaven and
not the gates of hell
