World Pandemics

Gary Edward Geraci

 

Would we all get together,

Once victims of the world’s pandemics,

All from different eras:

Yours horse and buggies,

Mine, rocket ships.

 

The gravity of the loss

Of loved ones shared

And then it was our turn.

Human affairs, even the most

Advanced, our small talk now,

 

Compared to the immensity

Of Heaven, the ever endless newness

Of eternal living. Promises no longer,

Faith and hope long put aside,

Love and joy now, Love and Joy!
