“Dance me to the children who are asking to be born,
Dance me to the curtains that our kisses have outworn,
…Dance me to the end of love.” – Leonard Cohen
From sepia tone
pictures,
To the rooms we enter
now,
From windows through
the past,
They reach and teach
us how,
Their eyes and smiles
see us,
While steadfast love
frees us,
To life alive
unfettered.
Relationships with
aging,
All along the years,
Hearts forever
youthful,
Through laughter and
tears,
Just sit and lend an
ear,
Be patient and do
hear,
How life is made
better.
Age can frail the
bodies,
Once so strong and
whole,
Yet wisdom runs
forever,
On life within our
roles,
Never doubting life’s
meaning,
Truth from God’s mind
gleaning,
In the following of
love.
Youth will find true
purpose,
In wisdom and in
faith,
In sharing smiles
with elders,
A joy nothing can
replace,
See the hours pass
like minutes,
Defying life illusion
limits,
With God smiling from
above.
