Behold The Vast Effects Of Time! Poem by Denis Martindale

Behold the vast effects of time!
Some wondrous and some sad,
Some quite exquisite and sublime,
Some even make us glad...
Consider how the butterfly
Emerges then takes flight,
Consider as each dawn glides by,
Replacing what was night...

Reflect upon Man's awkward youth,
Ungainly at the start,
Yet gaining wisdom, strength and truth
That guide his growing heart...
And how the Universe plays out
And stars, like men, must die,
When destiny's the final doubt
Beyond all reasons why...

The mind can contemplate it all,
To muse, yet find no gain,
Beyond that life's a miracle
God chooses to explain...
Yet God has all eternity,
Like angels in His care,
Fulfilling all that's yet to be,
According to each prayer...

Thus time's the plaything of God's choice,
In which He still excels,
While fathers leave their girls and boys
When each bids their farewells...
Yes, Mankind's mortal, that we know,
One life alone to live,
Yet, on to Heaven, Christians go,
Because God can forgive...
