When We Are Young
Keep on thinking young
for we will all be younger one far day away.
Time will skip away on lightsome sneakers,
time will outrun its miles to go,
time will melt its dream
of a ticking clockwork universe.
Sometime, out of time,
we will return to our prime,
the flower of being
will peak and not wither
nor will we be hostage to
the indecency of untimely entropy
for flesh will not rule over us.
Keep thinking young.
10 million years are but a short dream
for the blossoming of just one soul.
Imagine ten billion souls awakening
like beautiful flowers in Gods garden.
We shall not be old in our minds
and our mind will be our flesh,
our body will be a mirror
of our eternal reality.
Start to be younger today,
here in this mechanical timepiece
of earthly life,
for soon we will be much younger
and our light
will outshine every sun.
