A poem about the manifestation of God's Kingdom on earth.

Do you feel it?
Do you feel the hint of majesty, the vague sense of holiness?
It is coming.

Do you hear it?
Do you hear the faint sound of the angelic chorus, the distant roar of rushing water?
It is coming.

Do you smell it?
Do you smell the forgotten scent of the incense, the underlying fragrance of holy fire?
It is coming.

Do you taste it?
Do you taste the barely remembered sweetness of living water, the richness of continued mercy?
It is coming.

Do you see it?
Do you see the shimmer of rejoicing spirits, the consuming glory of the throne room?
It is coming.

The Kingdom is coming.

Are you ready?
