An Unopened Book
Gracfully Walks
His old age,
has caught up.
His pain slows him down.
There is still,
life in his step.
But it hurts to get around.
He says,
"I have years to come"
but, life is slipping fast.
There is light in his eyes,
but the light won't last.
tears come,
to his childrens eyes.
As they say,
their last good-byes.
Bless him with their love.
As he gracfully walks,
to God above.
