Time Is Short Poem by Belle Wassermeister
Time Is Short
I want to stay forever, but I can't;
to this old world we all must bid goodbye.
It does no good to sit and rave and rant,
nor try to understand the reason why.
Already I've been here more time than some;
so I won't try to stay another day
beyond the time when God says to me: "Come."
I'll gladly grab my wings and fly away.
I know that there is life beyond this sphere,
for many things to me were manifest.
We must improve ourselves while we are here;
we must try very hard to pass our test.
If you believe the Judgment is just talk,
it could be you are in for one big shock.
Nice one Bella, I believe in Almighty and the day of judgement and Jesus (Pbuh) a mighty messenger of Almighty.5***
Hi Linda, this is the first poem of yours that I have read. It exudes a wonderful feeling of lone and kindness. The qualities Christianity stands for. Although I am not a Christian, I often read The Holy Bible as I do Gita. So I could easily relate to your poem. Perhaps.
May God bless you dear sister in Christ, may he give you joy and peace in these uncertain times! Wonderful poem! Come soon O Lord Jesus, please come soon!
I love your poet's note : ) I wish that everyone on this site would come to know our Savior! Indeed only through Christ can our dead in sin souls be redeemed! ! !
What an absolutely beautiful poem, Mrs Wassermeister! ! ! Superbly written! ! ! I am always so happy to come across other Christian sisters in Christ here on PH! ! !
I am thrilled to find a sister in Christ here. May God bless you and keep you for himself, until our Faith is sight!
