The Poem 

Life what a wonderful view 

The view of yesteryear

Reminding of tender years 

With its gratis, boundless 

And untamed vista 

The view of what to come 

Reminding the old of the ultimate 

The ultimate destination With its delusion and aberration 

Destination yet unknown

Yet expecting the best

For the promise of the compassionate 

The incentive of the benevolence 

Light of the best of humans 

When the ultimate has come 

And the promise fulfilled

The trepidation has gone 

Then love would truly be true.
