final

by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed — Read all 584 poems by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed

Please pray for those who share in the calamities of this Earth Mother who shakes her anger at an unkind, warring world. Please don't forget our Authors Den poet-sister, Sandra Mushi, her family and her country of Tanzania, especially at this giving time of year.

Poem Artwork


are these the final days
when chaos seems to cast
the hand that robs us
of all we hold close?

are these the final times
when time itself and
The Final Judge shall declare
that Time as we know it 
shall soon be no more?

are these the final tests
when Humanity will choose
to bend and remain strong,
or to break and reveal its fragility?

are these the final prayers
before the victory shouts
on that reckoning day
when many shall bow down,
wailing "Why did I not believe?"

Not sure if it's not the final days,times, tests, or prayers, but it certainly seems like it sometimes. On that great gettin' up morning, fare thee well, my friend.

This is one of your best, Cynth'ya. But I'm sure I've said that before. Remarkable poem. Your last two lines are the ultimate truth. There will be wailing. These are probably the end times, but the end times could go on for years. God's timing is not ours. Thanks for this inspiring poem. xxxxoooo Janet
