Mark Koplin Poet Rhyme

Mortal Realm

Mortal Realm

will good things come to those who wait
or do we act now and destine our fate

who controls this realm in which we live
what do we need and what should we give

can we live by some words written in a book
maybe it’s time we take a good look

fortune and fame will set with the sun
reward will come from the race you run

do unto others, while you still can
trust in God and not mortal man

live your life with one thing in mind
what will he see and what will he find

some will stand and some will fall
you’re in control so give your all

do your best and make it count
take each punch and then surmount

Jennifer Proxenos June 2, 2021 at 12:31 PM Wonderful poem, we are mortals, and believe you me I do try, but I am sure that sometimes I stumble. But good thing to come to those who wait, but we in turn must to good unto others. Hugs and blessings, Jennififer - mis-spelt my own name but my Greek Aunt could not say Jennifer. and by some strange coincidence I spelt it as she used to call me!

Beryl Edmonds May 15, 2021 at 6:49 AM I believe good things come to those who wait, sadly for some it’s often too late. As long as we live as we should He will see the good in us. A fantastic write Mark… Belle Mark Koplin May 23, 2021 at 2:37 PM Thanks Belle!
