Sweet sixteenth

by Anton   Mar 6, 2006


The earth has circled the sun once more,
For the sixteenth time in your life.
The sun has risen and set each day,
In a most perfect unison like husband and wife.
And from this day forth you no-longer are a child,
As you are brought one step closer to adulthood.
One step closer to individual recondition,
And breaking the shackles to become all that you should.
So as you progress through your life’s adolescence,
While slowly learning and gaining maturity.
The world at times will become difficult to understand,
But you will survive if you trust in Gods ingenuity.
And now as you fight through the journey of life,
Never be fearful for God is with you.
Protected by his grace and glorified by his love,
Remember it is Christ whom you live through.

    Wow this poem is increadable. the way it started off was really good, it was a very poetic way of saying this person has turned 16 which i really liked and i probably would not have been able to come up with :P ill be honest with u here, i am a catholic but the problem is i dont have any other choice really and, well, i dont believe in god. the poem is completly beautiful all the way through but to me seeing the name god in a poem usually just throws me off and makes me stop reading and say holy this is lame..but sumhow u managed to make me look at it, continue reading and be completly awed by what u had to say. the last finishing lines really sumed up the poem greatly and is a very bold statement. well before i continue rambling on lol, just wanna say great job-keep it up..id like to see some more poems on this site by you! keep it up!:)
