To my great-niece Grace Castellanos...happy decades of living beautiful one.
POETRY
A fresh sapling getting nourished by sun-rays and watered by dewey sprays
Whilst growing and glowing
by moonlit nights and
Stars shining bright.
Your light illuminates
your thoughts,
your heart seeks to know
who you are becoming as it ought,
Defined by God who created
Such a beautiful soul to fulfill
The purpose only you hold…
Look back at the years now past,
I’m sure the time’s gone fast
When you were little say eight years old
And all you did then was what you were told.
Now you're a young adult whose
Responsibility is mostly for you
Your choices today will impact your path,
A future uncertain, so you ask:
when and how will I get to where
I want to go with the least bit of trouble?
You’re only responsible for what you know and do,
The path you take is now up to you.
So in all your getting get understanding
And wisdom too, they both will help you
Do what you are created to do.
Only you and He knows where you'll end up,
Only He can fulfill your empty cup, the cup of life!
