One is Born One is Taken
Cry out joyously for a new life has come forth into this world. Yet with the coming of the sun, one is taken. What sorrow be this that comes with a new life; and yet know we not of the joy. Who amongst the family of man can know what comes with the sun. What manner of understanding; can share joy and sorrow with the first breath of this which be new life. And yet the sorrow ever painful stands as does the shadow in the mist. Unseen we know not of this pain, until we ourselves see, feel, and are touched by that which be the cold breath. Still we rejoice in this new life ever forward. Not knowing of the sadness; still the new life restless. In but a day be this possible; or be it just the babes reaction, without the touch of the mother. Oh new life feel you this pain without knowing, wish we that this be not so. We that have lived understand little of the mind of this life. When one is born and one is taken...

Congrats on your new arrival you are such a proud Granddaddy and by all right should be. Sorry for the lost in your family when one is born another has passed but left behind a true glory of a new life. God Bless your family .
ReplyDeleteBlessed are you with the new life that has entered yours. Accepting you must be of the life that is now gone. God giveth and God taketh. That is the cycle of all living things. Find joy again in that that lives. I am so glad to see your words still flowing, I have missed the special insight you have in things and the creative way you are able to share it. Life has been so busy for me and time on the internet has been cut way back. I do miss the creative side of it. We all need a place to be creative. Happy Spring to you Mark. Hugs Carrie
