Forever In Your Heart

Does one bad apple spoil
the whole bunch?

Not if the apple itself,
came from the same tree,

Jesus said: "A tree that is good,
bares good fruit",

Jesus said: "A tree that is bad,
bares bad fruit",

So the apple itself
is not to blame,
but maybe....

The tree from which it fell?

Open your eyes, open your mind, open your heart, let me come in and show you love.....~ARH

I don't know why this hasn't been commented on...you seem to pose the poignant philosophical argument of responsibility with poetry...just remember the old maxim

It is not how you play the game...
It's where you place the blame
