Womb to Tomb

 

Once a human being is born

The birthday present of death

Is tagged along

 

We love each other

As we go stronger,

Till a time comes to part

If the younger goes first,

Tis a sorrow, sad,

But when one is ready to rest

At the last resting place,

Love overflows.

 

We all know partings are painful,

But have we any control?

Of course we all know,

Yet live in hope he’d stay a bit longer.

 

Then when time comes

One is gone,

A smile he leaves behind,

And a tear

My dear,

Neither of joy nor sorrow,

But for those whom he does endear,

As a token of loving memory

As time does inevitably come near

 

Take heed,

Let him pass in peace,

Be strong as he would want of you,

Dads are rarest of rare commodity

The human race knew

Wish you to do…

    This is really nice and you are so right in stating that Dads are rare because they are. Any man can procreate, but it takes a special man to be a Dad. Thanks for sharing.

    If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.
