Pleasures
Some things have become examples,
In making them a few samples;
As to not desire evil,
That is tempted by the devil.
Do not worship any false gods,
All those that are genuine frauds;
They are ones that light the fires,
Causing a burning desire.
Sin not sexually as some,
To make it as an act of scum;
A sexual decease invades,
And you wind up maybe with aids.
Never put the Lord to the test,
But keep in mind to do your best;
For some did and were killed by snakes,
While others swallowed by quakes.
Do not complain or you might find,
That God is really not too kind;
As you see the angel of death,
Who will take away your last breath.
Things happen as an example,
For others to see as a sample;
And it should not be a mystery,
Why they are our history.
So be careful and firmly stand,
Not to fall or on sinking sand;
Remember to pick the right door,
Or temptation might have a lure.
