A Beautiful illusion



Growing children spread your wings
And fly away for greater things
Parents will be fine on their own
Prospering in a happy home
Visit often make them proud
Stay away from the wrong crowd
A life worth living is a great one
Unless to spite you it's a fake one
Burdens be they great or small
Those pointing fingers shoulder them all
Forgiveness gave birth to new life
No more stress no more strife
Putting to rest all confusion
Life is blissful
What a beautiful illusion!
