I walk through the Valley of Death,
and I pay no mind
not because I am evil,
but because Death is kind
every time He visits me,
His words serve to remind
that there is nothing here to fear,
when we leave Life behind.

You’re killing me, I just read, “The Lord is…” last night for something dark I’m writing. Tsk, whatever shall I do now? Great job on this poem, I like your, “Death is kind” and a very Clever title, “Shadow Pun”. Are you familiar with The Valley of Dry Bones? Have a wonderful evening, take care. ~ Mia

Yes biblical, exactly, found in Ezekiel, a very interesting vision. One of my favorites! The imagery is great.
The Lord Is My Shepherd is a prayer,
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death…” So I thought that is what your pun was about. If you’ve never read it, you should, it’s very short. In a strange way your poem mirrors the poem, not exactly, but a lot of dark similarities.
