Faith

A poem I wrote in Feb 2002. I received the Editors Chocie Award from Poetry.com and had it printed in their book "Miracles of Nature". Here is the poem Faith:

Each day we go to work, we pay our bills, and we feed our families.
Each day we think only of ourselves.
Yet the day that we are left behind, we fear the world.
We worry about our loved ones and we cry out to God, why?
Don't fear and don't hate. Those who are missing are with God.
They are in a better place and their heart was with him.
You may cry for them and you may cry for you, yet you should pray.
You now must have Faith to survive.
For God will come soon to take the faithful and leave the wicked.
Do you want to be left behind?
