I love this contest entry. You have covered everything and I had to laugh at the line about dead poet's work selling better. :) I myself don't like to think about death, therefore I'm totally unprepared. Your poem made me think a bit and that's always good. Best of luck in the contest.

Hello, Sandra, and thanks for this lovely rendition of "Precious Lord." I am remiss and so far behind in reviews! I'm glad I stopped in to see this one! It's true, true ~ let us enjoy life as we live it, pray that our words leave some impression, and hold our loved ones in our hearts as we move onward and upward... Just no time soon! Please!

My pleasure! I am so far behind! I gave myself the gift of your writing for a bit, today. What a blessing!

This is a different type of Contest Entry.
I really enjoy writing about my fictional death but this is based on reality.
Yes, and when we think about our Everlasting and final wishes.
We must make sure that everything is in order.
Thanks for sharing and good luck with your contest entry.

Thank you for your review. I do have all my affairs in order.
Comment from Carol Clark2
How ironic! I looked up your portfolio because of Rachelle's Ode to you, and discovered you've died before I had a chance to meet you! Lol! Your "Last Call" entry is great, and I enjoyed reading it. But I'm glad you're still with us on FS. Blessings. Carol

I am trying to think of something not to like in the poem. But I just can find anything except a well-written poem with a clear message. An excellent entry for this contest. Beautiful picture and a nice presentation too. Terry.

Thank you for the exceptional rating. I do have my affairs in order, every detail except the flowers. I appreciate your comments because I do not write prose often.
Comment from Mary Shifman
I like this final phone call. It's clear, emphatic and comforting and a bit humorous. I've been trying to make similar plans to make sure all is in order when the time comes. Good luck in the contest.

This one-hundred-word story, Precious Lord Take Me Home, has the proper formatting and sends out what might be any one of our final statements. Of course, Marie, Mary Peggy, Rach, and Barb may not be included.

Cute. Short and sweet ... oh yeah, that was one rule, one hundred words, wasn't it. You've done well, my FanStory friend. Keep on truckin' forward. ..............................

Comment from sunnilicious
Oh my goodness, that was a happy suicide note. I found it more sad because suicide isn't something that I believe it. You thought it through with instructions for cremation, selling your publishings and donating to charity. Offbeat as you are quite creative. Good luck in the contest :)

The writer had a heart attack. That's what the prompt says. Thank you for the review.
Comment from AP Apgar
What a nice write- something we should all consider- while we have the opportunity- and if- most are afraid- and know in advance that no one wants hear any reference to our inevitable fate- I intend to follow the fictional persons example - hope I can be as focused- I was told I have about three years to get it done- thank you for the reminder!! Good job AP
