The Wait For the Reunion

Life was at its normal pace
With men running their assumed race
There were merry times
and of course times of pain
But when i felt alone there was a man to  bless like rain

He always gave advice
As he was old and wise
We took it as a burden
But now we ask for pardon
  
He never failed on duty
And that gave him his beauty
Truth was his only path
But we always showed our wrath 

He loved us with his heart
And it made us difficult to part
When God called his name
Spreading around his fame

He loved to see us flourish 
And taught us how to cherish 
Each piece of time
Without committing crime

As the years passed
He grew old and feeble
But he was often harassed 
Not aware he was enfeeble

His mouth was always closed by us
But now it turned  to be a fuss
His voice filled the entire house
Teaching us with a hope to espouse

As every member turned away,
He turned very dull and grey;
God felt it was time to end
To take the soul he once did lend

Everyone were fast asleep
He took a place in heart so deep
He left the world to meet the God
And the whole was a game of lord

We cried, we wept, but it was late
To change the pre- planned dynamic fate
We heard the people praise him well 
That God would surely abondon hell

Then a hope did fill our mind:
That God would surely help us bind
With my praiseworthy  granddad
In the paradise God would add!
