BIRTH

As a perfect design skilfully drawn

The artist so perfect indeed;

His sketch board so delicate and intricate

As He begins with just one seed.

He adds His paint full of colour

As He draws each feature with love;

The brain He draws with a squiggle

With His powerful hand from above.

And all features are coated with honey

As they develop gently over time;

He seals our heart with a tender kiss

And a beautiful nursery rhyme.

And as the exodus occurs

We grasp for air we cry,

And into a flower we develop and grow

And kiss our past goodbye.

We’re reminded gently over time

Our wonderful creator with love,

And commit our lives to God indeed

To spend eternity above.

“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die.” Ecclesiastes 3:1-2
