I still fear death's dismal features  
horned and taloned horrid creatures
who so blithely and compliant
make a man to
aquiesce


I just hope life's worth the dying
and that Jesus wasn't lying
about mansions up in heaven
golden gates to
welcome me.


I've been tempted by loose ladies
prefer not to live in Hades
but from time to time partaken
of an apple
from the tree


It's a question so perplexing
Why does God condemn the sexing
when some young thing has worked so hard
to share her skills
for free?


So friends... can you adjure for me
explain this unfair policy?
Why is paradise the carrott
but we never
eat the pie?


Please forgive this introspection
I still hope for resurrection
all these answers without questions
leave me crippled
anyway.

If you're crippled, you're not alone. *S* For I think questions seep into the thoughts of even those with greatest faith... A child drives the parents nuts with cries of "Why?"... and we never stop wondering. *G* Well done, bags... glad you joined us!

Bags, it's going to be fun watching you post two or three poems through a day or evening...I'm sure with your thought process, you are going to find a wonderful readership, just as there is plenty of reading to be done by us, for us all...

(big hugggssssss) This is so sad but soooooo powerful, sweet friend, it too is a mystery to me but I believe He would never tell a lie and if we have the heart to believe we will find true joy up to that time! (sigh) You are already a wonderful addition to this community, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
