For Joshua.

________________________________________________________________________________


He stands on the verge of happiness.

A smile plastered onto his face.

The traditional song filled his ears.

As he stood, slightly out of place.


The crown was placed upon him.

The responsibilities ever so great.

For they were celebrating his life.

Because love and joy was his fate.


To be happy and successful in life.

On a journey, long but rewarding.

He set out to conquer the world.

Striving to be young and adoring.


The Lord was his eternal shepherd.

He was guided through God's ways.

Venturing for the uttermost best.

His life an array of beautiful essays.


Alas, he had found his sole purpose.

And wept of bittersweet contentment.

For all distress and apprehension.

Was nothing...


...but a mere remnant.
