Ecc 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under

the heaven:

Never fading fire

A mom’s heart on paper touched my heart deeply

Tears welling in my eyes ... of beauty only love can bring

A little child departing ... for its destination

before it ever took a ride ... in what life can sing

An unforgettable moment what someone’s birth should be

as never in your lifetime ... that moment will return

Except for the mommy ... who experiences often

the time that life possessed her ... as love within her burns

Never fading fire ... and often set ablaze

as she only remembers ... the excitement of love’s pain

It will never depart from her ... until the day of her farewell

when she leaves herself behind ... to be for us a constant gain

Time sometimes turns loveliness ... into what it should not be

Time helps us to forget ... the things we ought to keep

Beauty hidden in a closet ... locked away from all to see

just there to cry in darkness ... until no tears are left to weep
