Why all the angst;
This topic's old;
Please give me ear;
May I be bold?
Man's eyes belong
On his own soul;
A lesson here...
Love is the goal;
Removing specks
From brother's eye
When mighty log
Doth in mine lie
Is not the path
Of life, you see,
It only breeds
Futility.
No answer there
Is ever found
When fighting on
This battleground;
And faults we find
in other men
Reside in us
-So look again;
In haste do not
Judge any man
Just give them love
That is His plan;
If we would all
Do only this
This world would be
One full of bliss!
This wisdom's from
A loving God
To help us tread
This mortal sod;
And more like Him
I strive to be
To learn His love
Is my heart's plea!
The lesson here
Is plain to see
I won't judge you
And don't judge me!!



Hope this Helps!

Interesting way of telling me that I should keep my mouth shut on the subject of religious hypocrisy.

"Do only this
This world would be
One full of bliss!"

That is exactly my point, if all men did this it would indeed be a wondrous world but since they don't it will never happen.

Point taken though, you will hear naught from me about christian hypocrisy as this says it for me.

Thank you Romantic Heart and DreamEvil for reading and commenting.
Dream-you miss my point. I'm not telling you or anyone else to keep their mouth shut on any subject. I'm am merely trying, though perhaps poorly, to say that we are in the wrong arena to begin with if we are looking at other's shortcomings. We would all do well to judge only ourselves. Something to strive for though never completely reached in this life.

I really like this, Denise. We were just talking about this on Wednesday at my church. Would you mind if I printed it out to share with them, all credit to you of course?

Denise,
I really love your poem.....It says a lot.
If only we could all live by it, but then I guess we would all be in heaven. Some day I pray.

Denise... you have an amazing ability to express yourself in verse...
Mr. DreamEvil... one of your favorite terms comes to mind... drivel... that is not christian hypocrisy... just my personal views

Thank you all for your read and kind comments!

Echo, yes you may print it out and share it! I would be honored.

And let me add that this was not meant as a judgement of anyone. We all have faults (logs)that need to be dealt with. So much so that we should not have any free time to start inspecting others! And yes, perfection will only come when we pass over to that blessed shore!
