Shocked by a shockwave
A ship lost at sea
Waves graciously high
Sorrow seemingly deep

A brutal balance
Beaming with angels
Waiting at the gates
To welcome what we've lost

It's God's golden gift
To give life to earth
Like a bumble bee
Gives life to a flower

Caterpillars die
Cloaked in a cocoon
To give birth to a
Beautiful butterfly

The sun leaves at night
But it keeps it's shine
Even when it's dark
To come back the next day

Precious pedestals
With red rose pedals
Names engraved in stone
And letters sealed in tears

Paints us a picture
That life is a gift
Full of surprises
Wrapped in a bowtie and

God takes what we love
Right out of our hands
Just to make us love
What we have even more.
