Masterpiece
Bishop Fulton Sheen said
" every death should be treated as a masterpiece."
I understand that.
No matter how long or short
the ending surpasses everything, every breath
that life allowed us to take.
It is the culmination of our very existence.
Though life is indeed a gift,
finding our way back to God
makes the journey giving back worthwhile.
Every achievement, no matter how small or grandiose
is nothing when we close our eyes
that singular last time.
Peace of soul, sacrifice of heart,
love given and taken embraces all
in the masterpiece finale.
