The defining moment of an illustrious life
Bends through time like a just-sharp knife
The breathtaking beauty of outward appearances
Sends chills up the spine with each step it advances
The wee ones are watching for someone to emulate
All efforts renewed time and again, as if fate
Were standing judgment and in this court
Success flies high on dreamy wings like sport.
The heart opens wide to receive all comers
Releasing love and joy as a lock moves its tumblers
And when all is said and done the memory we keep
Is how much light was shared before we went to sleep.
