A Poem for the Road

If you lead this life right and push to the end,

And go along the road with a song and a friend;

You'll long to return to your birth and your maker,

Where life began like dice in a shaker.

.

It seems there's no point to this road called life,

But travel it long and stay sharp as a knife;

For many have ventured and many have dared,

To find answers on earth to the questions compared.

.

It takes a great man to find peace in his heart,

To establish his mind for his duty and part;

We should suffer no loss and hope to achieve,

The one centred goal of all to believe.

.

There's highways and byways but one beats them all,

It's the road to heaven when God's made his call;

For how lovely to get there and know that you've won,

The life past on earth, now eternally one.

.

Signed,

Love is Great.
