A time to reflect
We see feeble form decay
and death will soon have its way,
which makes tremulous heart sigh,
at our wasted life gone by.
Scriptures affirm God exists
but lingering doubt persists,
so we must see with our eyes,
the truth before body dies.
There are debts of love we owe,
best repaid before we go
and also we must forgive,
that in vibrance we may live.
We’re told we are living light.
Why then do we crouch in fright?
How may we imbibe wisdom,
that gets us to God’s kingdom?
Body dies yet soul lives on,
which if the truth, let us yawn,
because then life’s but a dream
of thought forms we choose to stream.
Such are the questions we ask
God, who’s equal to the task,
so He tells us and we pen
deep truths with our yen for zen.
