Life's Journey..The Road Ahead.
From the moment of our New born cry...
A path before us forms.
This is the 'Road of Life', my friend,
as from the womb, we're torn.
As Children, we will travel it,
our Parents by our side..
Hand in hand, protected..
The path ahead is long and wide.
Through School Years, we have company,
travel not this road alone...
Yet detours, that we start to see..
Can lead us far from home.
As adults young, we walk this route,
choose companions, as we tread...
Some will stay here, by our side...
Some will leave this road ahead.
We will travel many pathways,
many spurs and narrow tracks..
Sometimes, so long and complex,
yet too far now to turn back.
With many twists and turns, my friend..
It will lead us through our life.
Our companions turn from Lovers,
into Husbands, or a Wife.
And as darkness falls, as storms appear,
and shelter may be few.
We carry on regardless...
and when the road is rocky too.
And as our time on Earth draws near,
the Angels will descend..
They'll take our hand, and walk with us,
till we reach our Journey's End.....
