His father was missing
and "Thuse" was alarmed;
"Perhap he's kidnapped
or even worse - he's harmed!"
The family was worried,
about where he could be;
for nobody had seen him
since half past three.
They searched the village
everywhere he might go;
and questioned his neighbors,
even ole' Pigpen Joe.
"Have you seen my father?"
Thuse peered in each face,
but they shook their heads "No";
There just wasn't a trace!
Dusk turned to darkness
Then darkness to night,
So Thuse gave up searching
until dawn's early light.
It was Seven days later
he got his first clue;
when a man said, "Hey Thuse,
I've been looking for you!
"I observed your father
About a week ago,
walking with a friend
In that valley below.
"They were walkin' and talkin'
like old friends do,
when suddenly they linked arms,
and like eagles - they flew!
"Believe me, Methuselah,
I would not lie...
I saw them lift off
heading straight for the sky!"
Thuse looked relieved,
and shook the man's hand;
"I believe you, my friend,
And I now understand.
"We all know my father,
walked daily with God,
and the two were as close
as two peas in a pod.
"So it's not a surprise
He would leave earthen sod,
and one day keep walking
up to heaven with God."

"Enoch walked with God, then he was no more, because God took him away." (Gen 5:24 NIV)
