As Time Goes By Poem by Gary Halsey Sr.

As I sit here and ponder, why I am here,
I know there is purpose, but then I fear,
Am I missing something, and will I grow,
Why am I here, I really, truly, don't know.

Rhyme and reason, trying to figure it out,
How will I know, what my lifes all about,
I am God's creature, there is no doubt,
What he wants me to do, I stand up and shout.

'What do you want of me, please explain? ',
Nothing but silence, is what remains.
I suppose he will show me, some sort of sign,
I imagine I will see it in some point in time.

As time goes by, I hope I shall see,
What my purpose is, what he expects of me.
My quest is to do, whatever that is,
What am I to do, that is the quiz.

As time goes by, I will ponder no more,
To learn lifes lessons, to know the score,
Believe in myself, and God, what I should do,
To be a good person, and to thyself be true
