Birth
awake
awake child
all is new
all is pure

Life
how many questions can I raise
without finding any answers
can i discover truth
when one solution only
leads me to
another
question
should i make my own conclusions
or must i, rather, take His word as
the one and only truth
for, just as maturity sees the flaws
in adolescent thought,
so God sees the flaws in ours

Death
here i stand before Him
barren of all things of the earth
all joys, all pains
all victories, all defeats
all love, and all hate
left behind to their esurient devices
as i face my Father
in untold humility

Rebirth
and i await His words no longer
for He speaks now four words
four words
with more love than i have
ever felt before

Welcome Home, My Son.
