ONLY GOD

 

The best of plans that we lay –

The hurtful words that man can say

Then flowers will bloom in early May,

   But time hides in the shadows –

Along the edges of a rocky crest,

I look around at all of the depressed,

And I wonder how we got in this mess,

So many issues they can’t be addressed,

And on and on life goes . . .

   But time waits not an hour!

Some say it’s better to be heard then seen,

But I think it lies somewhere in between,

And maybe I’ll wake up from this dream,

   A fact, to make biscuits it takes flour!

So come to the table – take your place

Then hold hands and say the grace,

Speak words of honor – never lose faith,

   And know this, only God has power!
