The Puppet Show

The Puppet Show A reflection of our past should tell us something about our future A blade of grass torn & drifting in the wind The stage is set for the stars to appear Draw near and hear perhaps shed a tear The members are all assembled the conductor is present A variation of a dream sequence in the figment of our mind The strings are pulled to alert the players to move Just got into the groove with a change of mood Suddenly they sing with such melodic of tunes A brevity of sounding chimes to make sure everyone is in line You see God is the conductor pulling his world on a string The theatre is set for service to our heavenly king Shadows are torn in formation to its timely ring Some are lazy & some are willing to bring there all in all Today we have two responders with Hillary & Trump One wants to build a wall the other is a no it all The puppet show may come to a theatre near you Borrowed chairs and a papal pew Perhaps we as a society have bitten off far more then we could ever chew Let's cooperate with the conductor as he chisels his wand upon your soul

Very interesting! Love the analogy you used that God is pulling the strings to the puppet show!
