Bones Ache Yet Heart Sings

Before my mirror, on this summer day,

I see my aging landscape spreading far

in stages of my autumn's own decay-

with weakened frame and aching bones which are

now shielding winter sleep from death afar.

But deep inside, my soul stays springtime green

with love for God that paints my mental scene;

accepting, waiting- that in death I'll rise

in beauty once again, brand new, pristine-

above in Heaven's blessed, Eternal Skies.
