A/N: Ok here's my first fanfiction. I know it's not a story, but I basically did this to familiarize myself with everything on fanfiction. Thanks and PLEASE REVIEW!!!!

Disclaimer...I don't own Shakespeare or "Seven Ages of Man"

Seven Ages of a Catholic

All the world's a river,

And all the people are merely pebbles;

Unable to fight the current,

And must go with the flow,

Through life's seven ages.

First is Baptism,

The infant descends,

Into the Holy Water;

Crying and screaming.

Then comes First Penance,

Confessing sins

To the priest;

Trembling and frightened.

Next, First Communion,

Receiving the body

And the blood;

Nervous and awed.

Then Confirmation,

Reciting the vows

To the bishop;

Blessed and excited.

Next is Holy Matrimony,

United forever

To the perfect man;

Complete and joyous.

Then comes parenthood,

Taking care of little angels

And protecting them;

Tired but hopeful.

Finally comes death,

Eternally asleep,

Loved by all;

Peaceful at last.
