Cradle of Life

The days started and life began The streams took their place and mountains their stand The trees grew and the grasses squatted, The shrubs and the mangroves All took their shape and made life beautiful. Everything set All put in their place. Nothing was out of order But made to suit the being that will soon come Then the decent takes effect Preparations completed The stage set Nothing to work for As all things have been laid from the cradle of life He stood there to make all things right Made the stage ready Provided for contingencies And all that will emanate as the days go. He knows the way He has been to the destination And would gladly lead whoever cares to follow him The needs on the way he will provide At cold nights his warmth will be sufficient And when the night comes he will follow you home He is friendlier than a friend Cares more than the eyelids to the eyeballs Secures more than a thousand soldiers would And loves more than the thoughts could imagine He has made all things right And would gladly give If you shall seek the source
