In summary of it all

It’s fair to say we’d like to stall

Denying writings on the wall

From far away hear Zion’s call

That then is our biggest fear

Nearer now the sound so clear

Strident music in our ear

Surrounded by it far and near

Mount barricades to stave the blow

 Prolong the now and make it slow

We hope our efforts that we sow

Another day wills still the crow

The time has come it could be now

To those departed, heads to bow

While praying keep our fears in tow

Gathering to look below

And soon then lass, it be your turn

Dust to dust, rest in an urn

Now more to laugh, no more to yearn

And on and on the time does churn!
