All these things you are staring at now.
The time will come when not a single stone will be left on another.
We follow through life after our own plough.
But we feel we are only here to suffer.

A friend has had a stroke.
One minute we’re planning for the future.
We thought we were as strong as the proverbial oak.
And then our whole life is about some suture.

Daniel said to Nebuckadnezzar you had a vision.
O King, you saw a statue.
We wait for the final collision.
But there is always hope that there will be something anew.

The Kings statue had feet of earthenware.
So let us too beware.

…….

The great King’s statue
Made of gold, still fell apart
And so too will we

See Daniel 2: 31-45
