The grasp, the rush, the thrill of the moment;
The hate, the fury, the frustration, the love;
The peace, the angst, the disdaining, the joy;
The anger, the patience, the Grace from above.
What at present seems unbearable
For Eternity will remain;
Remember each one abided,
Your relationship retain.
Learn now to be reconciled
For they, too, will see God;
If not understood now
Will be the same in a heavenly abode.
Love and be tolerant
For the one who irritates you most
Will be your eternal companion
Amidst a Heavenly Host.
So cling fast to Charitable giving
Of self, and all that’s best
So in Eternal Glory
You will both find Heavenly Rest.
