This is a short poem of a heart hoping even in fear.It is incomplete,words pouring out of me in a few seconds. Commanding me to bring these feelings to life and I did because words too need to breathe.

The circle of life

The circle of life

I felt that our whole life cycle is called the circle of life. We are born, we go through childhood, the challenges of teenage life, through adulthood and one day when we're old, we die. But we are granted eternal life in heaven. God taught us that.

My Life As Two Dogs
