What May 'Seem' (in the moment) Is Not So At All...

I had a terrible time reigning in the galloping steads of today's poem-possibilities,but with the news of another of my husband's aunts passing away (Ella)it causes Thought to muse on how what may seem  (mundane and inconsequential) in the momentis not so at all!! I look at the mundane duties (thankfully brightened by cutie-duty) that seem never to be completely completed,and I think about how utterly meaningless much could seemin the grand scheme of things...until we open our heartsand mouths and turn potential-mundane-chore-ness to a glorious refrainof worship/praise to God who grants Today! (When I play the song below or something similar, while doing houseworkit changes my whole perspective!)This afternoon looks like a long-song afternoon aka lots of housework!! It may not seem like much; the mundane ebb and flowOf duty as it falls through touch then melts like flakes of snowCaught on the tongue of Time where nothing stays the surgeOf a momentous pantomime where past and future mergeOn a verge called Today; perched on eternityA chariot soon drawn away by steads we cannot seeWhere the grim rigmarole of Today will expireAs the pilgrimage of the soul is restored to its SireAnd what once stole the show is but a lifeless bargeAs I AM snuffs the ebb and flow of Duty’s awesome charge Then, what seems to compose a long-forgotten scriptIs unveiled as with curtain-close, the soul of Garb is strippedWhen the last dream is dreamed, and the last breath forsookThe last jot of what ‘simply seemed’ summarized in a BookWhere font of taste and touch is gathered; smallest smallAnd what once seemed like nothing much is not so after all...where, pray as we emerge from what death has estrangedAs Today tumbles from its verge, that one thing is unchangedAs we behold God, oh, it will be as beforePraising He from whom blessings flow both now and evermore © Janet Martin John 5:24-29“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live. For as the Father has life in Himself,so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself, and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
