Poetry

---

The end of all things as we know is at hand,
Be sober, vigilant of prayer to understand;
Utmost, be fervent in charity to each other,
Treating everyone as a sister or brother;
For charity shall cover a multitude of sin,
That is secluded and lurking deep within;
Be friendly to each other never to grumble,
Meet each other in a style of being humble.
Even though we have been seeing the clues,
With a decline and dwindling moral values,
Since we do not know when time will end,
But we must consider everyone as a friend;
To do unto others as you desire them to,
Think of you the same way in all you do;
Everything you do by putting yourself first,
Merely makes your greed crave for thirst;
Be cheerful to others with rendering aid,
Tend to each others needs not to dissuade;
With serving others the sooner God begins,
Melting away inside the cold hearted sins.
