Worlds Away     

                                                                         Today a worlds away.

                                                                         A mission far away.

                                                                         For destiny to sail away.

                                                                         A course yet too far away.

                                                                         Danger, red light green light, a scary way.

                                                                         A fiery past, a destined last, only for a day.

                                                                         Good night, sun light, could it stay.

                                                                         Surely, rarely, momentarily, kindly stray.

                                                                         Twenty years, plenty of fears scars and tears.

                                                                         Sons daughters in all of those years.

                                                                         The I do’s, The I will’s. Look see, in arrears.

                                                                         Today is the beginning, sites set on love and careers.

                                                                         Till death do us part, it is infinity to serenity.

                                                                         Two as one, connected by breath and hope, no indignity.

                                                                         You and I, our future, it is with perfect clarity.

                                                                         Love-strength, with help beyond this earth, assures prosperity.
