LIFELINE
A father
Once a son.
A son
Will become a father,
Time makes the difference.
A mother
Once a daughter.
A daughter
Will become a mother
Time makes the difference.
Father's ignite
The pathway.
Courage and belief
Their messages.
Fearlessly facing
Adversity until they die,
Leaving a legacy for us to follow.
Mother's teaching
Love and patience.
Always showing
Compassion,
Amidst disorder.
Paving paths
For us to thrive and grow.
Children
Upgrading
The family timeline
According to instructions
Maintaining
The family lineage
For regeneration of purpose.
Parents
Our guides.
Leading us
Through,
Thick and Thin
Dark and light
Rainy and Sunny
Until we arrive at our destination.
Ephesians 6:1-4
Children
Obey your parents,
The right thing to do.
Blessings are attained,
Prosperity and longevity.
Parents
Provoke not
Your children,
Anger spoil things.
Show them
The way to go
Enlightenment over punishment.
