Every month our condo publishes a newspaper with a special page for residents to have their poems published. Last month a resident penned a poem titled “Is There a Real List?” He wondered if reality had a form and asked if once he was buried in the ground, would that be it. In answer to the man’s cry, Mimi penned the poem below which will be published in the November Kings Point newspaper.
THE REAL LIST!
(ULTIMATE REALITY)
Once I asked: Does reality have a form? I had to know!
Why not consult the wisest man of all? King Solomon.
“Glad you asked,” said this ancient one, “Listen as my words flow,
To give reverence to your Creator, that is the beginning of wisdom.”
My journey began with a promise: If you seek Me, you will find Me!
I cried out for discernment – I inclined my ear to wisdom.
An even more Ancient Voice then spoke. “Dear one, I am the Almighty.
It is I who laid the foundations of the earth. It is I who gave you your home.”
Since that time my real list grows hour by hour! There is an ultimate reality!
It began with coming clean. “Father, I am tired of living separated from You.”
Now I see all His blessings, but best of all: He has become oh so real to me.
Now I awake finding His mercies each morning, they are new.
Does reality have a form? Yes, yes yes! Don’t waste another day.
Seek Him. He is seeking you!
