Miracles

What is a Miracle?

---------------------------

Is a Miracle . . . .

. . . our planet which is spherical?

. . . a prophesy that's biblical?

. . . science which is empirical?

. . . a singer who is lyrical?

. . . a writer who's satirical?

. . . a reader who is critical?

No --

A Miracle's a correction

Of mankind's misperception.

As we go about our earthly business

It tells us of our own forgiveness.

By enlightening our mind

It takes us beyond time.

It keeps us in a Holy place

And gives us all the gift of Grace.

This world does not know Its way

Because Its laws we don't obey.

It finally makes us see the truth

Whether we're old or in our youth.

We know we won't be crucified

'Cause forgiveness now is justified.

It takes the very worst of life

And removes the very curse of life.

It takes us to the altar of Creation

Where we fulfill our sacred obligation.

It gives us all the very best

And reminds us we are very blessed

Because we have withstood the test

By making Heaven manifest.

Our sight has been corrected

And false dreams have been rejected.

A Miracle makes us finally see

What we can finally be:

Souls with immortality.
