Sages of old
whispered solemn prayers
for future generations,
having their words echo
through myriads of time.
Heralded as prophesy,
stern warnings of judgement
and the King's triumphant return,
these words now fall upon
deaf ears with no resound.
Have we become so advanced
that we ignore the past?
Does our intelligence
supersede ancient wisdom?
We've become a generation
caught up listening to our own logic.
We mustn't be so ignorant
in our arrogance,
thinking we're greater
than a scribe upon a mountain,
for there a reason why
his words still flow
through the winds of change.
Heed these words,
my brothers and sisters ~
live not foolishly,
thinking tomorrow shall come
(for the future is unknown).
We try quieting God's voice,
thinking He's no longer relevant ~
however, we're still relevant to Him.
He still calls us upon ancient winds,
and we'll hear His voice
if we pause enough to listen.
