Our Journey’s End...
I wrote this rhyme about death - and within a month I was reading it at my dad's funeral

Our Journey’s End...

How many journeys have we shared
With God – and those with whom we’ve cared?
How many lifetimes have gone by?
What is it like – to pass – to die?
Oh how we’ve wondered of the place
We’ll all end up – without a trace...

We travel on this plane with God –
Envision Him with staff and rod.
The ancients tell of wonders – grand;
Of miracles by His command.
We humans clamor to embrace
His Holiness – His truth – His space.

Though where we stand – Religions preach
The truths of God are truths they teach.
Yet in the end we all agree
That God is love – He sets us free!
For He provides a sturdy base
Surrounding all the human race...

We honor God by how we live;
By how we share – by how we give.
For in the end – His judgment reigns
Regardless of religious chains...
For goodness – death cannot erase;
In altered state – there’s no disgrace.

No matter what our thoughts on death
We all will take our final breath.
And in that moment share as one –
A human life – transformed – undone...
Our energy will touch God’s face
And thus – share His Amazing Grace.
