The World Is Not My Home

As i pass thro
Some times
In a hurry
Or at  times ease
I chance to glance 
Behind at times
At times above 
And sometimes below
I leave the ticks 
&  the tocks as i glance behind..
I dont trample below my present..as i look down..
And i glide to see my future ahead when i look above....
Oh am just a mortal
Soul or otherwise
I know not yet
Never born 
Never will die 
Just visiting
Planet earth
Having fun
As i transgress...
Oh all ye  who walk  the
 earth
Behold the powers it bestows
Bask in the sunlight 
Bathe  in the moon light
 Father time and mother earth will take us thro this journey...

 And in times like this
I pray and breathe in my blessings
And exhale gratitude and humbleness
Its then i realise
Quiter i become 
The more i listen..
The world is not my home
Just passing thro
What is done is done
I pray i bear these learnings in mind
When i come around the next time....
