Tunnel's
As if the sun would never rise
The moon stood strong the test of time
Mounted on its holy pirch
The stars suspended it from the earth.
The heavens show the dark with the light
Then why can we see threw the night.
For we see God through a narrow tunnel
Barely room for ourselves, we don't see others.
And at the end of the tunnel they find God's light.
They stood in the room astonished at the sight.
For in this room were was the end of a maze of tunnels
Not one being better than all the others.
And those who had come down the narrow path
They looked around at the others and gasped.
And those that had chosen a different path they looked at the others and simply laughed.
And one finally spoke up and gracefully said, "Why do you gasp at us all here?"
After a pause the others spoke up "Why are you shocked that we are here, we were on the path to the left, so close and so near"
And the new comers dropped their heads in shame.
For the others saw all, not one the only way.
