BACK THEN IS NOW!

Back Then Is Now!
Back then is now and yesterday is still today even
though our shadows have moved to a different spot.
Back then is now. Imagine how crazy our solar systems could get if
the sun and the moon decided to run after the rolling earth!
Back then is now. Our life has been set by God and
activated on a sixty seconds countdown.
This clock ticks on from the cradle to the grave! We can feel it
ticking away through our heartbeats.
Back then is now! Just why do I spend all my life
tirelessly trying to catch up with all my yesteryears of yesterday?
Back then is now! Sometimes the pride of life deceives a man to
believe he’s in charge and a driver of his future.
Back then is now. Sometimes I sit down at a busy marketplace
and just watch life overlapping life. What a sight!
If God would borrow me His lenses, I’ll be able see people of all
ages walking up and down: with their longevity chronometers visibly stuck on
their backs.
Back then is now! Hello my friend and how are you
today?
If you’re still one of the lucky persons who hear these sweet words
from a dear old friend.
I say, get up and dance like you just got married a
few seconds ago!
Real friends are rarer to find than the precious minerals nowadays!
Back then is now. Feeling down and gloomy is part of
life. Sometimes it rains down joy, and sometimes it thunders pain.
Back then is now and today is yesterday. Our future is harder to
catch like our illusive shadows.
Will it help you if I told you, even though it’s
thundering over your head... the blue sky and the sun, never stopped smiling
down on you!
Back then is now! If you care to think about all the
reality which surrounds us, you must chuckle at this.
The sun beaming over your head never sets, it is earth on the
wheels designed to keep on spinning with you aboard.
Back then is now! The sun never says goodbye, it’s us
who wave it goodnight as we welcome the night!
Like crawling babies we once were. Our present and future are just
another moment inside the ambit of time.
Back then is now! The sun, the moon and the stars need
us more than we’ll ever know!
Back then is now! Nobody can secure and catch up with their future.
It is our future which catches up with our time at the end of our line!
From the cradle to the grave. It is the latter which
keeps on howling at us, daring man to return to the dust from whence he came.
Back then is now! Life would be greater still if death hath stopped
stalking us right from our mothers wombs!
Back then is now! Like chess pieces inside the
chessboard, our steps keep on blindly swinging between now and then.
Back then is now, yesterday is today and my future remains anchored
inside my rainbow.
