MICHAEL JACKSON…GONE TOO SOON
As with all of the world… we mourn the passing of Michael Jackson. Our prayers are with his family at this time. Who among us was not influenced by one of his signature songs. Michael was shown ‘FAVOR’ to be one of those who’s legacy has touched and moved people…all nationalities, all countries…all people.
His essence, was that of ‘Love’, in his songs that this world would have a childlike unconditional…Love…for one another. Lest ye throw the first stone… we all have sinned and fallen short. This was a brother forever searching…for a better place, starting with…the “Man in the Mirror”. As Michael says, “Take a look at yourself…and make a change!” As I was going through my collection, I ran across this prophetic song of Michael’s…”Gone too Soon” Meditate on these words. It’s interesting to me that after the initial shock from seeing his death run across the crawler of the television, I had ’2′ thoughts..in this exact order:
- You can’t take it with you
- Was he Ready to meet the FATHER?
GONE TOO SOON
Like a comet
Blazing ‘cross the evening sky
Gone too soonLike a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soonShiny and sparkly
And splendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one nightLike the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soonLike a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soonLike a perfect flower
That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soonBorn to amuse
To inspire to delight
Here one day
Gone one nightLike a sunset
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
