Of Mice and Men

Of mice and men I have no doubt
Which one knows more what life's about
Though sometimes life gets crossed a bit
A way there is to get through it

From GOD above there is a plan
A plan for mouse and one for man
A scheme devised for both you see
To reach at end a life that's free

But first we both must solve the maze
Of recompense and bitter days
So we might know how blessed we are
To reach our bright and shining star

So be assured this too will pass
When all dead ends and walls of glass
Will one day be but stories told
From pearly gates and streets of gold

Of mice and men which one believed
And from our maze New Life received.

BRAVO!!! Oh Robert, this is fabulous, yes, yes, in a way we are all relatives of the mice, who work together to try and pierce their way through the corridors of the maze to the otherside, where salvation and freedom will be achieved, and knowing this, we will all eventually find our way too, from the bottom of my heart I believe this! (big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is excellent, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Robert, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Bob, very enjoyable read with a great message. I liked it very much. I have run through that maze before banging my head on dead-ends. Glad to have found my WAY. Cheryl
