Analysis of Rocking chair retreats!
Who said life is but a dream,
Best thoughts of God as it seems,
We live to die,
Tested on these plains,
Molested by the pains,
Mankind is a progeny collected under chains,
The old and wise are nearing their end,
To enter a realm where their nearing their friends,
Saw what we haven't,
Gaining awe like a pageant,
So many stories are told,
Greatness and glory unfold,
I remember that and this,
And the grandchildren spat from a kiss,
Old fashion,
From the cold the old ration,
We envy this goal but they know passion,
Can't live forever,
Watch who you mistreat,
The eyes of God rest in rocking chair retreats!
