Well, I’m not gonna really talk about links and kings, per se, but what I am gonna talk about kind of relates to that. And I’m basically just gonna share a couple of poems that I wrote for kids and other human beings years ago.
The first one is about missing links. And kings aren’t involved.
If your chain is missing links
And your cup is missing drinks,
Then I have to say methinks there is a snag…
‘Cause we need all of the parts
Before drawing up the charts…
Or we’ll feel it in our hearts, it’s just a gag.
Yeah, I wrote that because kids can get all the way through high school and into college and still believe the lies about so-called missing links in the evolutionary chain.
But here’s something to consider. There’s a a wealth of “new” information readily available to anyone who’s willing to do more than cruise the internet for social media pop news. And it’s easy to find irrefutable information by even PhD professors and scientists that completely contradicts most of what you learned in school about so-called evolution. Oh sure, you can attempt to refute it. But I don’t recommend that. Especially if you don’t like to lose.
OK, let’s move onto a lighter, more pleasant subject, shall we.
I lived in a small town in Kansas at the time I wrote this next poem. But you’d be hard-pressed to find any indication of that in the words. I guess I just wanted do carry myself away, on the summer breezes, for a mental vacation. Anyway…enjoy this…
Pleasant Breeze
The island’s gentle zephyr
Ran its fingers through the sand.
The epitome of friendly winds
Must have held onto its hand.
Did you know the Lord supplies it
From a corner of the sky
So the people of the world
Can it enjoy it by and by?
Tie your hair up with some velvet…
Stroll a year or maybe ten
In the shadow of a zephyr…
You’ll stroll back and forth again.
And nevermore will you be blue.
Evermore be merriment.
Make no mention of the money
Or the time you must have spent.
And try not to be an island
In an air of all alone,
Because even with a zephyr
You’d be no more than a stone.
Gentle wind please come again…
Blow and flow just as you please.
Every island, every person
Needs your lovely, pleasant breeze. © 1973 TF
See, I told you it wouldn’t be about links and kings. But I did share some insight about missing links. And I’m always inspired by the words I’ve read in the best selling book of all time. The book that was written by the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, and the creation of the universe in every living thing. Jesus. So, there’s that.
