Sands of Time

Sands of Time A. W. Nutter Viewing the world through opaque glass Sands of time getting low in the hourglass Friendships and treasures acquired in vain Blinded to the truth in this worldly domain Spiritual essence of creation is withering Traveling toward a preordained ending Wolf in sheep clothing ascends into power The souls of creation found easy to devour The sons of Adam and daughters of Eve Heritage forgotten to the Beast they cleave Lightning pierces the sky, Christ is revealed Prophesy completed, mans fate is sealed

Another good read, a bit scary in thought, but accurate I believe. I don't believe the end is coming soon though. And life is everlasting. Ellen

A very powerful message you have here, Anthony. Mankind is unmindful that for every steps he/she stumbled is a walk with God with disgrace to a wrong path that only us could change. Nice sharing this and my heartfelt thanks also for taking time to read my poem - Dream of Sailing. (^_^) Noel Villarosa.

Great write that is prophetic in nature or exemplifying prophesy from the "Bible". Keep the creative work flowing. Sara

Quite a profound sttement in this poem, Anthony. Can't help but think you might have been referring to the 2012 prophecies about the coming of Judgment Day. Nostradamus's predictions, I have heard, are more like warnings and I hope we have a chance to reverse our current course so that our fate can be changed. Compelling write, Anthony! Love, Carolyn
