Earthly Time Poem by AHO Speaks

You know its kind of foolish the way I spend my time
It's as tho life will get better like a vintage wine.
How do I spend the moments, hours and sometimes days
To open my eyes and mind to other than earthly ways.

Do I walk through the woods covered with white snow?
Or just become aggravated because driving is so slow.
To walk on the beach in the beginning of each day
Speaking to my God without talking is a joyful way.

How foolish that my time is spent on things of this earth
Is it true that in order to have value I must have worth?
I lived a dream that was unlimited in feeling and scope
It gave my existence its purpose with a vision of hope.

For a world filled with people devoid of animosity and hate
To celebrate our coming together in purpose and not fate.
Each evening thankful that I was allowed to see and feel
Filled with an overflowing emotion that truly was real.

Each morning filled with the future of each coming day
The one from yesterday remembered forever along the way..
Each person I shall meet and those that I saw
Filled me with the human and spirtual emotion we call awe.

To touch, speak and laugh within the family of man
A vision of God's goodness and beauty if we can.
Nothing to distinquish and separate one from the other
For within the family of man we are truly sister and brother.

The light of my day and the darkness of my night
Filled my cup to overflowing that God was in sight.
I could cry when alone and looking at the night time sky
Thinking of the futility of man and asking God why?

Sitting next to the beautiful woman with hair of gray
Honored by her presence and words at what she did say.
The things of nature as gifts to see but more so to touch
By the provider of all; with a love that means so much..

My mind was filled with thoughts and inestimable feeling
To see and feel God's love for us; was so revealing.
