Waiting For A Saviour.

Goldfinch60



In so many religions they wait,

They wait for their saviour,

And when that saviour comes

Wickedness will go from this world

And the world will be filled,

Filled with goodness and righteousness.

Well we have been waiting,

Waiting for thousands of years.

Maybe that is the problem,

The problem with this planet,

People expect someone else,

Someone else to come,

To come and solve their problems.

Well I have an idea,

Why not instead of waiting,

Waiting for your saviour,

Why not fix it ourselves!

    It's His second coming we're waiting for. He been and gone, just over 2,000 years ago.
    Also though - if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

    • Goldfinch60

      But it is broke Orchi!

        And - are we still waiting for the bus to take us back to Earth, since we met the astronauts on the Moon in 1969?
        How often does the No.7 bus to Earth run? Every 76 years, like Hailey's Comet?!

          But it needs more than my right hand 2781.

          If this is an attempt to put fire into some poetic souls, I'd observe that you are getting a pretty damp response so far, Andy

          • Goldfinch60

            Very true Dave, but they know it is right!

              You cannot know what anyone else is thinking - or indeed if they think at all.......

            • Bella Shepard

              Amen my friend!!!

              • Goldfinch60

                Amen indeed Bella.

                Here Here. No more waiting.Let's be happy by ourselves without that religion crap.

                • Goldfinch60

                  Organised religion is a farce David.

                  A religion of do-it-yourselfers? Sounds like a great idea Andy. 🙂👍

                  • Goldfinch60

                    So true AP, thank you.
