Poetry

---

Neither give heed to soap operas or fables,
That minister's gossip that merely rambles;
Rather than the godly edifying inspiration,
Being in faith for your own transfiguration;
The end results is love from a pure heart,
Of a good conscience and faith to impart.
We get wrapped up within our daily lives,
It seems as though the bad stuff survives;
You know what I mean of who did what,
All of the dirty details of who got shot;
And the defendant feels falsely accused,
For reasons as a child they were abused;
Then to decide to plea temporary insanity,
For meeting their wife for some infidelity;
We always desire to think of the worse,
And do not realize that it is Satan's curse,
For the bad news leaves our heart impure,
And causes our salvation become obscure;
So let God show you all for you to desire,
And words from His Scriptures to inspire.
