HISTORY DOES REPEAT ITS SELF

I wrote this sover long ago of my thought
re how it may all well have been .. Man making
the same mistakes and expecting a different
outcome ..

Back before man actually lived upon this planet
He lived on one much the same as he does now~
He started on it as he did upon this one to
And he eventually destroyed it as only man knows how~
He had forgotten a lot of what he had ever learned
But he remembered greed and other negative emotions~
When he eventually came from destruction to life
To this beautiful planet with all the oceans~
It was back then that the forward thinking people
were those who got to leave before that blast~
They took the ones who thought as they did then
In a bid to help they felt man kind last~
So they then shot this group to planet earth
A planet then in reach so very lush and green~
A planet that thought they could live upon
In a way then that man then had never seen~
Men later in books to be termed then as Adam
Women was then to be termed as Eve its true~
And they first lived in a cleared area upon earth
And all started yet again life as a new~
They called were they landed by the name of Eden
For the fruit was ever so plenty there~
Crystal clear water flowed in babbling brooks
And as well mountain fresh pure was the air~
They'd found that some animal life was mountain height
And they were were savage to say the least~
The ape life then lived in deepest caves
As for them as well not to become a feast~
Man did eventually do the same , moved into caves
In areas they were not threatened by this tallest foe~
And man later killed the apes for meat and fur
And all men then moving into the apes home he'd go~
Man later as usual then fought among man as well
As breeding took up lots of then precious room~
He still had not forgotten inbred greed and hatred
And even then still better living again became the boom~
Living in caves had man eventually change his shape
And eating now in a different way as apes did as well~
And they only came out in the safety of night
To hunt for food and fruit near where they dwell~
Man was back then not the sight then as we now know
Not even before when he came to earth~
But what he'd become due to coming here
Was even then becoming debatable worth~
He had known before he came here
Of God in their special way
But those that worshiped God before
Never left with them upon that day
They knew of God creating all things
As he had done way before our time
But man after all said and done
Often sees other things as being divine
They look back today and call man then the cave man
And from there we now have humans as we know man~
With all their extreme and far out ideas of
How it all was and how here on earth we all began~
Those away back then this time wrote Gods book over time
And even Jesus taught us best he back then could
But since then his book has been rewritten many times
No longer in ancient Hebrew it says what it really should
Man this time here will likely do the same thing again
How I wished in the name of God all I say is so wrong~
And it's written already in nature and in the winds of time
And its as well written in mans own very souls song~
Man generally speaking sorry to say the most destructive thing
That we have upon this God given beautiful earth~
And weighing up against this planets entire values
Man on earth mostly sorry to say has little worth~
But with this planet now having been re stocked again
After another natural natures brush wiping of the slate-
They away back before this time came from ever far away to earth
And to once more began to as man did learn to live and create-
We were only here one feels created by God
But not really in the way here that think and we find-
For his creations would be greater than all we could imagine
And his abilities above our comprehension,our being so divine-
And history they say repeats its self
Well at least they got that true~
Here there are those who love and those that destroy
But mans ways are hereditary back from a planet or two~
History will repeat its self again I feel
As it's done so before often longer than time~
And we feel that if we cant understand it, it doesn't exist
That's why history will do it all again,and in its perfect rhyme~
