tomorrow
to the living
was never promised
so its effects on today
linger uncertain
adjust and readjust
be bold
be wise
be diligent
and hold those
you hold most dear
en route
the eyes of emotion
turn truly modest
ah, yet the eyes of the soul
remain flawless and sincere
life
the finest trained actor
upon the earth's volatile stage
perfection flawed yet modified
perpetuated
and constant
we stand
and move
and have purpose
a 'Breathing Monument'
to the Father and his matchless Son
he, for whom we long to see reappear.........
