Reverence Blessing

To understand a burdened life at such an early age, the common man of hardened heart would live his life with rage. When putting all before oneself the noble role is played, as love becomes the driving force for sacrifices made. Hence a lifetime having lived as one who takes the lead, working far beyond his share in tending ceaseless need. The place within of which he's held is gilded with respect, our humbled hearts of gratitude wholeheartedly reflect. For such a man of character beyond the selfish ways, may the blessings of the Lord bring peace throughout his days. And may God heal with holy hands his suffering and pain, for with his health his family and the world have much to gain. -Jeannie Minor

The first two sentences speak volumes. The entire poem is masterful of understanding what people go through in sacrifices under the guise of love. Great write, Jeannie. Peace my dear:):)
