Never grow old, kid, never change. <br />Years from now we’ll revisit you <br />In thoughts and dreams; we love <br />You for your smile, your spring, <br />The way you sing and dance and <br />Throw rocks. <br /> <br />Never listen to the lies, kid, don’t exchange <br />The word of God for the love of man— <br />They think you’re strange, yet I <br />Long for your laughter! If only the world <br />Knew how to sing and dance and <br />Lose socks. <br /> <br />Never lose your hope, kid; stand firm in faith. <br />Love your neighbor, trust in the Lord, <br />Listen carefully for His voice, it’s often soft. <br />I wish in years to come that your still <br />Waiting, jumping in the doorway, <br />Off to Bible Club again. <br /> <br />Always remember, Jesus died for you. <br />In heaven we will sing and dance and <br />Play turkey-turkey-Spiderman, we’ll <br />Probably still cheat, too. <br />I love you, kid.<br /><br />Jonzo Bandwagoner<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/never-grow-old/
