Remembrance
Remembrance for the many does imply
Remembering a loved one absentee,
Who passed, and is recalléd mentally
By friends, companions and family.
But Oh! - in the perspective biblical
Remembrance has much different a sense.-
Implies a sense of Present Actual,-
A Trust that begs for a continuance.
By its effects right in the here and now,
It's operative and definitive,
Beyond the bounds of time it does bestow
The means for man salvation to achieve.
“Remember me” - the Lord said on that Eve
Before the sacrifice was to be brought,
“Remember me“- so spoke the dying thief,
And hoped for more than some emotive thought.
Remembrance solely will never do
The All-in-All is in the Present Mode,
And hopes and dreams that mankind does pursue
Find their fulfillment in a Present God.
