Life-
   Death-
       Life


My life began with smiles and joy
What a wonderful gift, a baby boy
The smiles were flowing, joyous and free
This baby boy, they all came to see.
My life started without any fears
But that all changed to a life of tears
The pain I felt so deep inside
The kind of pain you just can’t hide.
I wanted to get up and run away
It was the comfort of pain that made me stay
I turned to gambling, sex and drugs
To try and get internal hugs.
My soul was dying day by day
The pain was growing in every way
The day then came when my soul was dead
As for many years it had not been fed.
Then came the time to do or die
And so I decided I’m going to fly
So with hard work and determination
I’ve found the true meaning of liberation.
So today in here still young and free
And I owe all this to my friend and me!!

Grandparents

Grandparents and grandchildren,
Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past,
With the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part.

Grandparents are special people with wisdom and pride.
They are always offering love and kindness
and are always there to guide.
They often make you feel so confident and strong.
Their arms are always open no matter what you did wrong.
They try to help out in every way that they can.
They love all their grandchildren the same whether you're a child, woman or man.
They are always there to listen
and to lend a helping hand.
They show you respect and they try to understand.
They give their love, devotion and so much more, that's easy to see.
Grandparents, what perfect examples of the kind of person that we should be.

& Children

Grandparents bestow upon their grandchildren
The strength and wisdom that time
And experience have given them.

Grandchildren bless their Grandparents
With a youthful vitality and innocence
That help them stay young at heart forever.

Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past with the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part....

Few can bring the warmth
We can find in their embrace,
And little more is needed to bring love.
Than the smile on their face.

They've a supply of precious stories,
Yet they've time to wipe a tear,
Or give us reasons to make us laugh,
They grow more precious through the years.

I believe that God sent us Grandparents
As our legacy from above,
To share the moments of our life,
As extra measures of His love.
