Temporal Dreams Poem by Christopher Tye

Temporal Dreams

Temporal dreams the folly of mankind,
Prizing processions more than life,
Short sightedness blinding us to the truth,
For life is far more than temporal dreams.

Temporal dreams consumed with greed,
As we always seek more and more,
Not counting the cost to ourselves,
Just think how much more we could be.

Temporal dreams blinding us to the truth,
Humanity living with-out humanity,
Always forgetting what's really important,
As temporal life and dreams soon pass.

Temporal dreams blinding us to the path,
Ethereal life is our true destiny,
For temporal dreams and life is just a stage,
Before we become our true ethereal self's.
