Living Dying What's the use I hope God's got a good excuse His thinking seems a bit obtuse To me Wars are raging Rivers'dead I'd like to know what's in His head Maybe.. He wants us seeing red So He Can Come and say 'I told you so now pack your bags'to hell you go you've wrecked my garden it won't grow J.C ' His son comes in Bows his head 'you never listend to what I said even my church is acting dead not free' Then I shout 'God you've changed your tack our free will.. you've took it back' He'll get mad and in storm clouds black I'll flee You see God's all POWERFUL This I've learnt And if you want your fingers' burnt Just try to tell him what you've LEARNT You'll see Jon Mewett One afore I go This ones for the road Drinks' on me...Cheers |

You see God's all POWERFUL This I've learnt And if you want your fingers' burnt Just try to tell him what you've LEARNT You'll see Funny how when you think you've learned something somehow the rules change and you realize you didn't know all that you thought you did Very well written  ~*Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear*~ |

I like the way this is written too Jon. We are always questioning. Human beings just have to know ALL the answers. I personally don't believe we get our "fingers' burnt" when we tell Him what we've "learnt", but differences in beliefs doesn't take away from good writing, and, that is what this is. See you on the flip side Jon. |

Excellent idea in this poem. I think we all should stop and question why these things are happening. But don't you think blame is wrong..God gives us free will..we choose what we do.... just a thought! |

Wow, this is one to keep me awake at night! Kinda makes you think! Great job on this, Jon! And thanks for the drink, but I'm a minor so I'll just take a beer...root beer, that is!  Again, great poem! Little Spyro T. Dragon |

I wouldn't mind taking you up on that drink offer and we talk about the ideas in you poem, some of which I myself have pondered many many times. I'm not religious but have done a lot of thinking and reading about all kinds of religions and I still have waayyy more questions than i do answers. But I guess the only thing to do is to keep looking. You expressed your ideas wonderfully in this poem, Jon. Good work! "Be yourself... No matter what they say" - Sting |

Improbable Converstation, that's for sure! I've always wondered why the world in general blames God for the problems that the world creates. God is certainly all powerful as well as all knowing but most importantly all loving and forgiving! And as PdV said, we all have free will. We can all choose the path we take for our own betterment and for the benefit of our fellow man. It is truly up to us! Pretty awesome responsibility He has given us. Let's make the best of it!

If we'd only care a bit for one another and show respect. What a better world this would be. Liked this a lot Jon. |
