Fond Memories Poem by Keith Foley

Fond memories fading way to fast,
Present thoughts blending with past.

I recall the day of your birth,
Gods greatest gift to bless this earth.

Yet, earth reached through its firery core,
Pulled you down six feet or more.

Earth and heaven sought your soul,
Earth gave in to Gods controll.

Away you went through time and space.
Mystries unknown, only to Gods good grace.

Where you went no mortal can travel,
Passing these portals, Lifes mystries unravel.

The doubts of Life revealed for you,
Darkness turns light as we all pass through.

The joy of your birth to be felt at death,
The day I see you and take my last breath.
