No it's not too short...although life often is too short. I am amazed that you packed an entire story into 8 lines. That is very talented writing and story telling. So many poems leave me with little emotion, yours left me quite sad and wondering. Well done.

Most lives tend to be just that, too short before the grave.
I took maybe too dark a meaning from this... but, that's my business. This puppy seems pretty fatalistic regardless of my take anyway.
(i love poems of this nature)

Nice write , no, not too short Gee, You said what you had to say, very well. My mother in law is 100 In a months time, People base so much importance on age. I am seventy six and I am in great health. but if I Kick the bucket real soon Then I am ready for my demise. It hardly matters we die when we are destined to die. My mo in law is much more dead than alive. If I were her I would be glad to float off. I enjoyed your words, my friend....Peter
