Poetry

---

If a person does get snared,
Doing something that is wrong;
Judge not guilt that is declared,
With agony to prolong.

Do it in a gentle way,
But watch out at the same time;
Causing you not you to stray,
By committing the same crime.

Bear burdens of each other,
Following what Christ had taught;
And try to help your brother,
For solutions he has sought.

If you think that you are,
Important when really not;
Then you will carry a scar,
Fooling yourself what you sought.

Let each man then prove their deeds,
From the action of each word;
You will just reap from the seeds,
By the care that was incurred.

Assume responsibility,
Doing things as you were taught;
To maintain tranquility,
For conditions as they ought.

You can never make a fool,
Out of the Lord our God;
For the only leg you pull,
Is your own being a fraud.

For we harvest what we sow,
To reap a good or bad yield;
If a bad crop we should know,
Perchance a corrupted field.

But having a healthy crop,
Filled with the Holy Spirit;
Give a tithe from off the top,
To the Lord for your merit.

Get not tired of living,
Regardless of how much strife;
Since the Lord is forgiving,
For an everlasting life.
