Cornel West Poem What God Intended? Poem by Tom Zart

Glorious is this world of ours
And the way we feel within
Where sometimes love plants its seed
In the hearts of women and men.

Marvelous is our beautiful world
And all the heavens above.
If we would just do our duty
Our world would be full of love.

Our world resembles a ruthless game
Where all are eager players.
There's smiles of joy and tears of woe
With hate, lust, love and prayers.

Our world is cruel to those who feel
And a joke to those who think.
Like the wind-blown pages of a book
Our years fly by in a blink.

No government shall exist forever
Who's people are not really free.
Though around the world there are those
Who stay blind to how life should be.

Never squander the passing time
For that's what life is made of
Never put off till tomorrow
Your time with those you love.

Enjoy the blessing of each day
And trust not for tomorrow.
We can't recall our yesterdays
Though their loss gives us sorrow.

The Devil casts his dark net
Over any he may charm.
He'll lead them from salvation
With his hands upon their arm.

I battle evil daily
And I pray that you'll join me.
We're not alone in this world
For we're loved and watched by Thee.

Gather your pleasures while you may
While the days you have left last.
Try to become what God intended
Before you're part of the past.
