These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Tanaga: "What Will Future Days Become?"

What will future days become
as we think of HISt'ry's sum?
Will the joyful strings we strum?
Will the nose at God we thumb?

Future days this year we seek.
Be we proud or be we meek?
Laughter can be strong or weak.
Dare we open door to peek?

Leaders seek the greatest chair.
Sports and politics are there.
Will we keep each precious hair?
Will our hopes still have a prayer?

When the Greatest comes to rule
be we wise or be we fool?
Future Day be hot or cool,
based upon Salvation's Jew'l.
