Sonnet: Live Not As Fools

We learn from Mother Nature's secret ways, In transient life on earth, until we die; We look upon the sky and tend to gaze In wonder, asking God, the question, ‘why? ' God's universe does goad the human art To soar to dizzy heights in lofty feats; Nevertheless, it needs a mighty heart To dance as per His will, divine tune, beats. Yet, lazy fools, their talents, bury safe, And live in somnolence, life's apathy; They think life thus remains quite super-safe, Incurring wrath of God, not sympathy! All things could crash upon the earth some day, Like stars that gleam so fixed in space, God's way! Copyright by Dr John Celes 6-07-2014
