There are two things that
are important
They are flip-side opposites
Time guarantees we’ll
see both
As time itself runs through
the hourglass
We are only closer to
the other
As one runs out
One of these is life.
It is indeed a wonderful
thing
Smiling, laughing, crying
and hurting
We are learning and growing
And in the end, we realize
Tis the little things
that matter most
Not wealth and prestige
These are fleeting and
petty, but Knowledge
The Knowledge we receive
Is the greatest treasure
we can lay in store
The other of these things
is death
It is indeed a wonderful
thing
Though many are afraid
Again, Knowledge
Peaceful, painless, resting
Entering the promised
eternal glory
Seeing people thought
lost
Families and friends
re-united for all eternity
We take Knowledge with
us
And only time grants
us that.
There are many ideas
about these things
Different perceptions
for different people
You must take your time
And think long and hard
about both.
