Tomorrows

Tomorrows All of our tomorrows seem to be filled with sorrows. But let me say, not necessarily the way that one’s life will, upon the stage, play. It might seem, that all our tomorrows will be, as we have seen all our yesterdays, life’s moments, experiences lived in sorrows as we perceive our acts, upon the stage, in the plays that have been written in the sands of time, time that may never be yours and mine, to know all of what could very well be sublime and take us to the logical conclusion of this rhyme. B. J. “A” 2 March 7th 2015 .

This is a very recent write, sire. While it's nice to read something that reflects your current thoughts, this is rather sad. To declare that tomorrow would be bleak as one's yesterdays, doesn't it preclude any hope for something better? But then, it is your creative piece, sire, I wouldn't dare question the reason nor the inspiration that prodded you to come out with such sad outlook. Let me, however, say that I myself hope for a better tomorrow,if not in this life, then the one next.

Good afternoon Kim : A pleasure to see you visit and your comments Kim. Yes my Dear, “ This is a very recent write, sire. ” not often though. “ While it's nice to read something that reflects your current thoughts, ” those thoughts my Dear, come to me on the wings of a word or two, that I hear, and the rest just flows from it or them. Although my reflections seem personal, most of what I compose come from knowledge of man’s actions throughout history and his current state of affairs. Just think of the middle east, the wars, the persecutions, the muslim religion that is taking over the world with termism tactics ( creating fear ) with their human bombs, young men with ego so huge that they believe by killing themselves ( destroying the innocent ) they will be rewarded with the sexual favours of seventy two virgins a day. Yes Kim, “ this is rather sad. ”, in fact it is insane !!!

“ To declare that tomorrow would be bleak as one's yesterdays, ”, is a statement of fact and all you have to do is think of the millions upon millions who were killed in the name of a god, by christianity, for almost sixteen hundred years, think of all the worlds conquerors, from Alexandra the great, to Hitler etc., etc. “ doesn't it preclude any hope for something better? ” better for whom ???, the populace or the powers that be. World affairs my Dear, world affairs “ I wouldn't dare question the reason nor the inspiration that prodded you to come out with such sad outlook. ” and that is reality Kim.

“ Let me, however, say that I myself hope for a better tomorrow,” as we all do my Dear, and for some, it is, but for many it is not, but as sheep, shepherded by fear, blind faith, and the power brokers !!!, we just go from day to day collecting material possessions and some precious moments to carry us into what most believe are the golden years. This reads “ if not in this life, then the one next.” as a question my Dear, but fear not for all the factual literature clearly indicates it will be, as the stories the NDEers tell . I see that you have put another poem into your jewelry box Kim. Keep up the good work !!! Take good care !!! Bill . ( B. J. “A” 2 )
