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.
