Tomorrow as beginning -- a future untold
creation of wonderment -- their lives' to share
Pledged in heart -- spirits entwined
forward with dreams -- love always there
Suns each in rise -- bringing days to years
untouched by time -- endearments strong
Forever beside -- with clasp of hands
each giving all -- carrying them along
Wake of moons -- cast by night
eyes that witness -- which heaven bears
Ones who follow -- mirrors of souls
shadows to self -- the future's heirs
Babes in cradle -- teetered for while
bundles of wonder -- making the home
Past now gone -- memories shine on
parted the children -- own roads to roam
Tomorrow as beginning -- a future untold
filled with wonderment -- lives to share
One to other -- pledged by hearts
forward their dreams -- love always there
Together in age-- final memories fade
sun to rise - brings last goodbyes
On wakened moon -- a haloed light
both dreaming forever-- through angel's eyes
Mother to children -- eternal through time
father as always -- strength in kind
Arms of comfort -- a whisper away
looking toward Heaven -- their spirits you'll find

Usually when I write I pay
Usually when I write I pay attention to the measure of syllables in a sentence to keep things somewhat in sync. On this piece I wanted the rhythm to be fairly consistent throughout, so I chose my wording a bit more carefully.
Thank you for noticing. I'm glad you enjoyed one of my handful of words.
What a lovely ode
What a lovely ode !! But somehow your skull and rose doesn't attract readers.... You ARE a decent person. Crush the skull and keep the flower. Its your option. Just a friendly suggestion.Please ignore.

Thank you for the nice
Thank you for the nice comment. As for the skull and rose, I think it rightly symbolizes my perspective on life. A rose and skull--for thoughts of beauty and the macabre.
