What price to welcome Eternity home... <br />What price has our sun paid for it's rising, <br />Shining, on Forever...faraway lands... <br />Squealing, laughing, children playing in sands <br /> <br />Where ancient reptiles left their tracks behind... <br />Where dolphins mated water, earth, water. <br />Who tore Eternity's spinning apart... <br />Why hasn't it's mending ended? But starts <br /> <br />Again each day, one hour closer in Time. <br />Again, light laughter of unknown children <br />Sifting Forever through little fingers... <br />Settling for food, warmth, sleep. Answers linger <br /> <br />In every birth, in each child...Welcome <br />For Eternity. And, in their eyes...Home.<br /><br />elysabeth faslund<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/eternity-s-home-sonnet/
