Stop
for a moment and reflect upon the silence of your life.
Seasons come and seasons go.
One is warm, the other cold.
You once were young, but now you're old.
Look
upon the consequences of your actions
as your destiny is revealed.
That which you have sown, so shall you reap.
As you have loved, so shall you be loved.
As you have shown mercy, so shall mercy be shown to you.
As you have been compassionate to those in need,
so also shall the needy be compassionate to you.
As you have nurtured and cared, so also shall you be
nurtured and cared for.
Listen
as the muse sings the song of your life.
The music is sweet,
though somewhat discordant,
and slightly off key.
The words of life,
of a life lived,
yet not.
