Shooting Star by Janet Martin Like a shooting star That's what we are In time's vast galaxy Life is quicker Than its tiny flicker Compared to eternity We hasten and scurry Always in a hurry Focused on the here and now Endless action So much distraction The who, what, where and how January to December So much to remember When past, it's a flash in the pan Soon it's behind us Not much to remind us Of the self-importance of man It's just a glance A fleeting chance Here, then quickly gone A puff of dust Before we must Bow down before God's throne Like a shooting star That's what we are A flash and then we're gone Without Him Faint glimmer dim But in Him we'll shine on |
