Pack your bags,

Only the young, no hags,

Only into the future will be your direction,

Won’t be able to go back to catch Christ’s resurrection…

 

Once in the future though,

From there back you won’t be able to go,

Stuck there unless how to get back they know,

If you did come back, all you know now,

Will have ceased to exist,

Will cats speak & dogs then meow…?

 

Can we see the passage of time,

On our trip forward,

Will the world then be slime,

Will we materialize on water,

Standing for a split second looking shoreward…

 

Unable to comprehend,

The future we couldn’t on tape apprehend,

Perhaps we could waste time and send a monkey,

Send him with a seed, see if he returns with a banana,

Or somethin’ else just as funky…

I think I'd rather know that God's got the whole world in His Hands and nothing penetrates that phenomenon. There is only one way, up, unless you are lost.

Heeeheee!!! If you send a monkey over, you won't see the banana. He'll eat it on his way back. Anyway, you don't need to go into the future to get a banana, there are plenty here already.

Rufuz will go, he's one brave doggie, if he comes back with your shoe, we know we can all go. OKAY Rufuz? Ed, you're so good and thank you for my chuckle. Love, Bonnie

On our trip forward,
Will the world then be slime?

It's pretty slimy right now, and our dismal future will look very slimy after we soon start drilling for oil everywhere, and ruining all of Creation.

I'd rather go backward in time; the future looks very grim and very slimy.
