To Paradise

By MaryHall

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I've had alot of time to sit and think lately About where I am today and where I thought I'd be by now It's a different place Entirely And when we are so young things look so easy And we don't have the time to doubt 'Cause we're dreaming all the time Look around this room and see the ones we love They've changed alot since we saw them first 'Cause we're slaves to time and it changes us We all go down this road and go our seperate ways Finding other ones and dreaming different days to be one with the others we find along the way Oh,cousin it's your turn now You're changing but don't forget how you got to this place in life You've always been precious in his sight This marrage,a sweet thing Blessed by God from the beginning You'll find life has so much more It's all part of what we're made for Take the two of them and turn them into one A mystery of God not to be undone He hates divorce Love each other wonderfully Don't get torn apart by this crazy world and all its crazy things Be strong,and keep God in front of you Our mothers are crying Our fathers are trying to let go and let us walk the road of our own lives And give you your wings to fly away It's hard to watch all these changes It reminds us all of our ages It shows us the goodness of Christ It's now your life story to paradise ...to paradisededicated to my cousin,Laura,whose getting married.
