Eternity's Sell-By Date Poem by Tony Jolley

“What if there ever comes a day
When you no longer feel this way………”



Then Mankind will have chosen peace,
The Raptured risen to their release,

Everest worn as flat as a board,
History will have ceased to record,

The Sun will have swelled and swallowed the Earth,
The universe enjoying a constant re-birth,

Past the sell-by date of Eternity,
Time itself will no longer be,

Even then, My Darling,
Our love will yet be young,
And ‘we’ not ‘I’
Will be where we both belong.
