The Forever and the Relative

Oceans so vast and blue
Have remained true
Waves have rolled onward
Toward the land for millions of years.

Earth too has been there
While days changed into years
Centuries into milleniums
All moving into history's memorandum.

Throughout history, many have proclaimed
The end of the world, but the earth remained
The sun has continued to rise and set
And no disaster ever destroyed our planet.

The end of the world does not mean
The end of earth or that it will disappear
It means a passing from the old to the new 
The birth of a new era, based on a higher truth.

Oceans will remain forever
Earth will remain forever
But lives will be altered
Until we see Heaven on earth.

The end of the earth is good box office...these giant asteroid movies...how some self-proclaimed prophet gets his name known. I suppose it all has to end sometime in the future, but I don't think anyone knows when and I don't think anyone ever did know when. Great write. LOve, daver

The "end" may just be the end of life as we know it. Perhaps by the same type of cataclysm that defeated the dinosaurs. However, something newer and better always seems to emerge, especially when we read about the demise of lost civilizations. Who knows what the "next" life forms will find on planet Earth. A classic tribute to the Earth's timeless endurance. Well done, Caroline! Love, Carolyn
