Golden Years

Posted By: DARRELL SWEET on November 03, 2005 Grandma, eight and a half decades on earth was spent Through the years wisdom was gained in increments Passed on to use in life as instruments Trials and tribulations aren’t always pain and torment Remain focus, stay humble, in due time you’ll vent God has been good to you How merciful is he? I pray the mercy he’s giving to you is extended on me I want a full life too, just to live it for him, remember the hymn I’m coming up on the rough side… of the mountain Satan’s alive and scouting, and while hell is getting crowded I’ll take the road less traveled, my old path was re-routed Some must think hell is comfortable, I seriously doubt it Hallelujah is the highest praise I just had to shout it Grandma thanks for everything you have done for me You are definitely everything a grandma should be If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
