Tariu Taeatafa's Obituary
One night in deepest sleep, I dreamed, Upon the beach I walked. The Lord was by my side each step As quietly we talked. Then on the sky my life appeared, Each chapter was serene. Two sets of footprints in the sand Were there in every scene. Two sets of footprints in the sand I saw in every scene. And then I noticed in some parts Of discontent and strife, Just a simple pair of footprints In the worst times of my life. “Lord, you said you’d walk by me In good times and in bad. Why, then, weren’t you with me When you knew my life was sad?” “My dearest child,” God whispered, “When you suffered then, I knew; The single set of footprints Were those times I carried you.”
