I Taste Your Truth

Life, as a gift, I cherish you
my chance to be loved
and cared for
by devoted family
to grow to be a woman
find my special love and 
give life back with a family
which has grown
to build our family tree-
now four generations.
I am so grateful for
my fulfilled life.

Someday, 
comes the sunset to
frame my awesome life-
the winding down
the peacefulness 
to know upon this road
there is a bridge.
I love you, life
but, on that day-
though bittersweet
I taste your truth-
every cycle has an end.
