The Spark That Is Life Poem by Gert Strydom

From the most early times
man did aim to immortality
as if he could shake off the impact

of life and time from himself,
did build pyramids in the desert,

did prepared people who died as mummies
and after years man could find

no answers by himself
to catch the spark that is life,

while daily lives do still hang
in the claws of destiny

but at a time the omnipotent Lord God is going to come
on His great Judgement- and salvation day,
to bring to the people that does believe in Him
salvation and eternal life.
