Dawn



It should not take,
Decades for anyone to associate...
A morning adorning,
On the horizon that comes.
Is referred as dawn done by the Sun.

It should not come to surprise,
That a Sun arising...
Has something to do with daylight.
Separating to notice darkness fades away.
Making this an acceptable way,
To take for granted changes made.

Yet...
For whatever the reason,
People expect their lives to live as is.
To remain the same unchanged to stay.
Like children refusing to become adults,
Done in phases to not grow up.

This...
Has got to have The One and Only,
Almighty God...
Curious as to what He-She-or It should do,
To awaken most folks...
Who are stubbornly determined to choose.
And believe,
They are not on Earth to temporarily visit.
But permanent inhabitants!
To do as they please,
Without God aware of it or be involved!

Leaving God not left alone,
When in conference with other...
High Deities beyond human eyes can see!
Scratching His 'All knowing...
Omni-present to be everywhere head.
To wonder...

'What in the World,
Have these creatures created.
That has left them so DRUGGED UP!?

And...
Check them out.
With it to believe themselves to be,
The cheese, chips and...the dip.
Yes!
MY DIP!

AND...
With appalling gall and attitude too!
They can not express their appreciation?
NOT ONLY For WHAT I HAVE DONE!
BUT ALSO IGNORE MY HOSPITALITY?

From WHERE on Earth,
Did they find to get this intoxicant?
AS IF TO DISMISS WHO IT IS I AM!
Come calm ME down quick.
I'M ABOUT TO LOSE IT!
I KNOW I AM SUPPOSE TO BE,
ALL OF THAT!
BUT GEEESSHH.
THEY ARE ABOUT TO PLUCK,
MY LAST NERVE!
