How Deep Is Your Love - Make Sure You

Make sure you...
Live your life to the full
To love each day and the night time to
Like you would maybe love a jewel

Our life on this earth does not last
It burns up so very fast
From that very first breath we took 
Until we take our very last

Family for me must always come first
Both yours and mine and planet earths
Nature, nurture, safeguard the future
As life they say is short and sweet

So make sure that you complete
Living your life to the very end
And make sure to include your friends
As well as those you have never met

So where do we all go from here
Well we will find out I fear
The reason that we were put here

Some say religion I say no
As for me I hope I know
That we are not all alone
As Genesis tells us so

That God created us all in his image?
But who is God and whats his mischief
As the planet is dying 
So are we alone the culprits?

If we are then I believe 
That you and me and humanity
With mother nature and the human spirit
May just find a way to fix it

How deep is your Love?

God will destroy those destroying the earth. Have read in Rev. Every good gift comes from God, not mischief, if I may defend God. Good poem.

I vote this for a POTD. I am a madwoman for honesty, whether I agree or disaree! What a great write, DAMO! I love your poem because your heart is so in this. It's like I am being with you. Not words to impress me with some off the wall brilliance. I don't like those at all. Thank you so very much for being real! What a gift you are to this site A hug from me and big cheers.
