Birth begins all The lives we lead, Planted so deep As we grow, Like seed, Until torn from the womb, Borne into doom, Such a terrible world that awaits us Love completes all The lives we lead, Love so expansive It rears Like a mountain, Until torn from the chest, Hearts and Minds distressed, Oh terrible love that creates us Death ends all The lives we lead, Anonymous reaper, Who reaps as we sow, Like seed, Until eyes close, To turn a beautiful rose, Away from eternity, lifeless, faceless, loveless. Death begins all Our faith, Leads us down the path That all must take, Beforehand though, We must create Love, Life, and Laughter. Remember. Life is short. But life is great. |

Bravo Luke, well done...I loved this line: "Until torn from the chest, Hearts and Minds distressed, Oh terrible love that creates us" |
