Gateway

The human mind is our gateway and life is but one key
Our sense's collect everything which will make us be
Time is the architect; to help our children and set them free.

All that we were and all we had will come to be
Now permanent residents somewhere in our memory
To thank our God for its gracious bounty to you and me.

Our mind filled with color and also touch
Family, friends and good people, who perhaps loved us too much
For kinds words from those who helped, when we needed a crutch

When our time is gone and all used up I am sure we will cry
Asking God not to discard our soul and allow it to die
Another time searching for the answers to, who; what; when; and why.

May everything we had, spent or gave away
Renew and make us whole to thank you again; for another day
Along with the light of your presence; to show us the way.

Please sanction and give us life again
Matters not the time or place or even when
Only that we participate according to the time of then.

Be gentle and enfold our spiritual soul
Remove all stain and make us whole
Bless us to see your promise as we were told.
