By All Means

By All Means
By: Adam M. Snow

By all means, I need to ponder,
of my life going yonder.
But though I still long for truth,
I long for those who's not uncouth.
By all means, I carried out to wonder,
when flesh and spirit sunder.

But in a world such as this,
dost Thou be amiss?
But I seek what Thou has in stored;
that statement of the Lord.
By all means, I wonder to ponder,
of my life going yonder.

Misery held me 'gainst my woes,
as if my life cease to flow.
But if it be the answer of my eternal quest,
nor any Death-but lest;
I accept the truth from Thee,
to where the Strong assure me.

I wage my life upon thy altar,
ponder here a time of falter;
I live to serve only Thee.
We think that we must be-
gods upon this earth.

I believe we learn common sense. When we learn we are just a part of life. Need to be kind and help the next generation. Great wealth and power don't mean much when you are dead and gone. I like this poem. A lot of questions were open up by strong statements.
"Misery held me 'gainst my woes,
as if my life cease to flow.
But if it be the answer of my eternal quest,
nor any Death-but lest;"
Thank you for the amazing poetry.

[Raven Starhawk]

Creative way to deliver such a heavy poem. I especially liked how you placed each line to coincide with something much bigger than this reader's mind. ^^* Loved this piece.
