Most foods and medicines have a date;
to be printed on their package, required;
indicating how their effectiveness relates;
beyond which, they’re said to have expired.
That doesn’t mean they’re now valueless;
they still may have a contibution remaining;
but it certainly tells us, their value is less;
and, at best, that value is rapidly waning.
People, as well, have an effective life span;
a period in which they appear more valuable;
beginning from when their life first began;
ending when they become rigid and unmalleable.
People’s life span isn’t etched in stone;
it depends upon a great many things;
diet, exercise, and living all alone;
it’s amazing what many variables, can bring.
Unlike with others, life has no expiration;
we think that we someday will die;
but, tho that may be our expectation;
we will discover that we’re living a lie.
Life is the living wave; that ebbs and flows;
whether we be a fool, or someone smart;
and each individual soul, comes and goes;
to a constant beating of the Master’s heart;
Consciousness is life; the eternal living being;
the love inside Him is constantly growing;
we’re all within Him; though, we’re unseen;
for souls are the Master’s lifeblood flowing.
