Where The Avenues Grow Wider
By Del
You come into this world, From your mother's womb, with nothing. You also leave this world, with nothing Between the nothings for some, is a very short time. Even during this very short time You need these priceless gifts God gave to you. He gave you eyes to see and a nose to smell. A mouth to talk, even a voice to sing. He gave you ears to hear, a strong healthy body. Most important of all he gave you a heart, That will continue to beat until your forever ends. You may lose your eyesight. You may lose so many of life's precious gifts. Where the avenues grow wider And are so much harder to cross, One thing you will need forever. The love of your friends With a love that comes from the heart.This poem was written for a contest where the words WHERE THE AVENUES GROW WIDER had to be used in title or in poem.
