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.
