At Eternity's Gate
A Poem by
RJM
The gate! The gate! We all fear the day when we face those giant ways to eternity
At Eternity’s Gate
At eternity’s gate
we all gather
Our last breath
has been heard
by those whom
we left
To be judged
by the Almighty
in his throne
and to know
where we are
to go
Is it the raging
inferno of hell?
Or the pleasant
fields of paradise?
Only He knows
where and we
wouldn’t know
which until
we are judged
Like sheep on
a farm before
the butcher
At Eternity’s gate
we all gather
to face what we
should yet it
is too late
but still to early

I love the contrasts and images you've planted in my head about God's gates of Eternity, well done.
