Stages


Stages The gift of life has many stages you see, First the conception where we came to be Then comes the birth where in the world we enter Growing up falls then into the center The fourth stage is growing old, it can be a long haul Death is the finale, the end of it all To some it is welcome, they're just ready to go Tired of illnesses and feeling so low For the loved ones it is hard, in fact it's the worst Wondering why, to God they cursed Not realizing that it may be for the best, That the one they love is out of pain and finally at rest Some deaths are untimely and that is a fact A full life to live they may have lacked But everything is done for a reason, don't fear God must have needed them more than us here Rather than grieving and feeling so sad, We could celebrate the life that they had Just remember to pray and to take God's hand Because everything from the beginning has all been planned.
