Metamorphosis
Tis now the autumn of my life
The dreams of a once bright future turn crimson
In reflection of the sunset fast approaching
The leaves of my life's promise
Fall silently toward the ground
Wafting erratically upon the breeze of eternal destiny
What? Shall I bemoan my fate?
Is it not the fate of all living?
Indeed I shall not!
For I shall ascend from this earthen vessel
I shall as a butterfly emerge
A new creation from its cocoon
I shall spread wings of joy
And ride upon the winds of eternity
Amidst wonders unperceived by hearts of flesh
To become forevermore a testament
A majestic and painstakingly crafted jewel
To reflect the glory and love of He who is my creator
~~
Yes, my hair turns new shades of gray
My body stoops a little lower
As it seeks to return to the ground
To be planted as a seed
But fear not my friend
For I shall not rest there as some suppose
I shall burst forth
Hearkening to Gods command
And death shall no more hold me
Sin no more diminish and deceive
I will be counted as one of the faithful
Because simply... I chose to believe
Russ
