Were you Raptured as well?

The Rapture I guess passed us by
It's not hard to figure out why:
The christianist dopes
are selling false hope
and offering pie in the sky.

Birthday Limerick

Time speeds inexorably on

You blinked? Twenty years are long gone.
But the option is worse
so I'm thankful, in verse,
to wake to each morning's new dawn.

The prologue of past is complete.
New paths open up at my feet.
The road, as is said
goes ever on up ahead
with loves to hold and friends to meet.
