Premium Member A Sign From the Heavens

I lie prone beneath the October sky
Embraced by the night, and cool damp grass
The heavens above, loom dark and wide
I ponder to make sense of my finite self
My own small world, filled with a million demands
How foolish they seem in the scheme of all this
What lies there beyond...in this vast universe
To blame anyone else for the earth and it's pain
I look to myself, and see there is no gain

One shooting star...then another comes close
Like fireworks...the sky is a canvas, predisposed
Burning a hole in the blackness of space
Reminders to me that this earth is a gift
A gift to each one, a gift for each day
Another star falls, in a firestorm so bright
Leaving an imprint within my insight
Of the endless wonders we usually ignore

I will look to the sky where my answers now lie
The heavenly comfort that is standing by
Oh, the mystery that lies in the Milky Way
And the planets we see, and the ones that we can't
Again all reminders that we aren't mere ants
The white ice that blazes all over the sky
Leaves a trail that has purpose, ...............and so do I

Premium Member "tis Later Than You Think"

~A lament~

Most signs and prophesy already fulfilled,
the scarlet of harlot lady has sung,
the veil has fallen away.

Hitler, De Fuehrer the man of sin,
the son predicted, hath prophesied,
many of God’s elect, the Jews have died.

`Tis much later than you think,
millennium is surely at the brink,
the harlot’s two legs of beauty are no more,
two towers of economic power have fallen.

In one hour great towers did fall, bewailed,
bemoaned, the earth doth reel, to and fro,
nature’s safety is in the fro, as earth bows low.

A vicious cycle, a call pending of Michael,
One foot on land one foot on the sea, one final plea,
One more call of love, and then we’ll see.

The Awakening

A. W. Nutter

Suspended in a darkened shroud
Screaming but making no sound
Naked and vulnerable feeling alone
Time standing still in the unknown

Unable to stop the body from trembling
The scenes from your life begin revealing
Sins and atrocities which were committed
Secrets on display, nothing being omitted

Satan striding through the lake of fire
His torturous kingdom is no ones desire
Spirit retreating into its earth bound shell 
Safe from persecution for a short spell

Suddenly awakening from the nightmare
With a sulphur odor still lingering in the air
Guilt washes over your earth bound form
As on bended knee you pray for reform
