Picture This

Picture this….
Laughter ceasing,
Hate increasing,
Time depleting!

People running,
Children shunning,
Chaos, plundering.

Fearful hiding,
Many misguiding,
Deeply sighing!

Desperate seeking,
Proud weeping,
Kings grieving! 

Lions attacking,
Waters slacking,
Hunger mapping!

Picture this… 
Kingdom coming,
Saints humming,
Drummers drumming! 

Trumpets sounding,
Hearts pounding,
Brides abounding!

God rearranging, 
Bodies changing,
Jesus reigning!!

Son shining,
Silver lining,
Jesus dining!

Masses smiling,
No crying,
No dying!

Wolf’s feeding,
Lamb’s leading,
No bleeding!

God designing,
Gold aligning,
Pearls defining!

Picture this..
God inviting,
Your name in writing,
Love uniting!

Hearts accepting,
No regretting,
You reflecting?
