Soon I'll Be Gone...

Friday, 6th August 2010, 22:59 hrs...


Soon I too would be gone...
to a place that I may not know
where only deeds of service and
works of grace would be my lot...

Soon I too would bid farewell...
and head towards a destiny
that is far better than I can imagine
and where a cup of blessing awaits...

Soon I would be welcome...
at a place where the poor, the sick,
the weak, the miserable ask for help
and I'd be free from all nonsense...

Soon life would be uncertain...
for I'd be with the scums of the earth
whom God cares and Jesus loves...
and where I too would learn love...

Soon is a time that's never clear...
unless and until I make it a reality
that begins in my heart and reach out
to those in need, right here and now...

Soon...
