Soul Survival

Soul Survival

A Poem by PoetryofProvidence

Tenderly the sun does shine on morning dove and the lupine 
gently do the breezes blow o'er mountains and her snow 
lazy rain does fall down trickling from the clouds to ground 
where I walk I do see the beauty all surrounding me 
walking by the oceans edge where the sandpipers do fledge 
greatfully I look upon every morning with her dawn 
Oh beloved earth so grand, the dwelling place the soul of man 
in whose hearts the lofty eye, certain time in place will die 
none who come in later yore will remember whats before 
all the work from hands of men will be scattered to the wind 
and the crafts of loving toil , the burning flame of life's oil 
to the dust will return, the energy we do burn 

Oh beloved mortal, when you find the portal 
will you be the same , or find another name 
when the book is open all the things you've spoken 
will be brought to mind and if you were kind 
every little thought all the toil wrought 
every deed and word , even those not heard 
every penny spent , and on whom it went 
each and every sigh , and for the thing you cry 
how you've spent your life, how you treat your wife 
when you reach your destination, will you have an explanation 
how you treat your fellow man, and the damage to the land 
when you ignored the call , will you stand or fall 

will you lose the resurrection , all because of your deflection 
when will you come to know , that none is worthy here below 
when the weights and balances , find you in its countenance 
will you be found so wanting , will your life be a haunting 
when all the memories of your past , catch up to you at last 
will you on that judgement day , have anything left to say 
when you faced mortality, did you have morality 
will you with your judgement pay, lasting place on final day 
and if you have been found true, will you get a life thats new 
for we see imperfectly , all that we are to be 
all the mercy we have shown , for the all we have known 
will you wear robes of white , or pass away with the night
