Microcosm Moment



Microcosm Moment

We forget gratitude for being well
Just be thankful we’re not going thru’ hell
We take for granted the ringing of life’s bell
Human nature pretending that now is eternity

We witness suffering and it shakes us with fright
We then hug our loved ones tight as if it were their last night
Triggered emotions that charge like a locomotive
Suffer the little children and it’s destructive

We go from young to old and begin to conceptualize mortality
We conjecture what follows finality
We take whatever soothes our alarm
Solace results in strength to mostly keep our calm

This unknown conundrum allows jumps in our mind
The place of faith before the chasm of religion
Where suffering overcomes that divisive bludgeon
To hold hands and pray to connect to the Power to win the day
