Our Journey

There's a journey we all take ,
It's the gift of our life.
We travel down the winding
 road,

Like a cocoon to the butterfly.
Some are more beautiful than
others.

This life is a short journey,
You have enough days allotted 
to fill it.
For all the tasks we must do.

Then at the end of the road we 
all fly away.

Revealing but, not yet so revealing. It's a long road to get there and you are almost there. Thank you for being such a good host and spirit. All around! GF
