The Cry of Eternity

So swift to engage

the busyness of show

and goodness, self-proclaimed.

Applaud is easy in the limelight.

The monkey dances

and no one see's the chain.

To brag and boast

is for only one to gain.

And the masses continue on

in the dark of hopelessness

and despair.

Who will deny themselves

and carry the cross,

dash into the night 

with the powerful Light?

Dispel all thoughts 

of self-proclaimed glory

this one chance at life.

A vapor has but a moment.

Reach out to those hurting.

Get down into the dirty

and cry.

Share Life together

and One will dry all the tears

from our eyes.

Eternity is waiting.
