My Best Explaination of Death(For Caleb)

Injury, sickness and time weakens the fragile human body.
When a person has been fighting
the battle of life, the body weakens with age.
One day we give up the battle and take our
begining in God's eternal kingdom.
Where we won't tire, have pain, be sad and feel loss.
Uncles are there praising Jesus at his feet, 
smiling brightly with no pain nor sorrow 
in a mortal body. No addictions nor diseases 
to cloud the mind and vision.
