"All these are the beginning of sorrows" Matthew 24:8. In this chapter of scripture Jesus is telling his disciples what will happen to consumate the end of this age and the coming of the Kingdom, the renewal of the Earth.
Sorrows translated from Greek in the Strong's Concordance means:
G3601; a pang or throe especially of childbirth: - pain sorrow travail.

give me the rhythm, a steady heartbeat
birth pangs are closer, the pain on repeat
music comes forth from creatures small and great
fat raindrops drumming,a new age awaits
wind whistles and moans through tall trembling trees
the mountains bow down with weak shaky knees
the heavens look on as stars light the way
one foot in the sea, another in clay
the rhythm picks up, crescendo,climax
water breaks forth as again Earth contracts
we time the pains with excitement and zeal
our lamps full of oil and garden is tilled
Watchmen wake up! we wait for trump seven
new age, new Earth, the Kingdom of Heaven
