All That Glitters Is Not Gold. Poem by Roxanne Dubarry

All That Glitters Is Not Gold.



Throughout all the ages of time,
mankind has been searching.
For its own private gold mine.

All that glitters is not gold.
The ancient tales are frequently told.
How mankind has sold its mortal soul,
in its pursuit of gold, and diamond rings.

Mankind worships at the altar,
of materialism. Instead of seeking
the wisdom of King Solomon.
He was the wealthiest man,
who ever lived on earth.

He did not spend his valuable
time scratching in the earth.
He composed Old Testament books
well worth mankind's time.

All that glitters is not gold.
May mankind realize it while
there is still time. In
order to redeem its soul.
Why should mankind perish
in its sins!
