A poem about seeing the error of our ways through the lessons learned within our lifetimes

-Thank You Consequence-

Teach us
Great sky
Show us wide
Bring everything
Into clear view
Never again
Let our vision be askew
Clarity must be
Our new trumpet sound
Blaring upon hills up high
All around people must come
Drawn to the noise made
They must want to see
What you alone
Are capable of showing them
And if they don’t come
If they refuse the light of the sun
Then punish them you must
Suffering is part of life
In time they will all recover
Healing leads to change
The error of their ways
Will be laid to waste
Thank you consequence
Is what they will say
A new lease on life
A new realm of ideas
Will all become theirs
Their narrow minds will expand
Broadening their understanding
Of you and your omnipotent plan
Teach us
Great sky
Show us wide
Bring everything
Into clear view
Never again
Let our vision be askew
Let us become as one
In this ever-expanding sea of blue
Let us stand under the same sun
Looking up without concern
For all that is down below
Forever free our hearts will be
Forever better this world will seem
Thank you consequence
Will have crossed many of lips
But in the end
All that will matter most
Is that we all will be
One unified being of understanding
All of the lessons learned
Will become ours to believe…



Thank You Consequence
