Poetic-Verses
'' That Was Always The Good Lords Intention ''
I prayed to God to ease my pain,
I'm afraid he must have refused,
Is he treating my plea with disdain?
Or is it he is just confused.
That got me thinking what would we do,
If we received a prayer from God,
Would we reply or just let him stew,
Or would most of us give him the nod.
Watching us self destruct he cannot abide,
Though he's a wonder to behold,
Even a God must have his pride,
Our greed and fighting must leave him cold.
As His Universe is endless he must work non stop,
Dealing with an abundance of life,
Given the chance do you think you would swap,
Or say no thanks I couldn't deal with the strife.
He's been around for zillions of years,
Nobody knows for just how long,
He's watched the laughter and dealt with the tears,
A God must have a heart that is strong.
Watching us die must be awfully sore,
He must wish his memory was blank,
Us bombarding him with problems galore,
Would it come as a surprise if he drank.
At his ripe old age does he ever forget,
That's what most of us do,
If he could hear me I'd tell him not to fret,
His human race are almost through.
He must get fed up trying to fix our ills,
As we do give him loads of grief,
He may well have taken to popping pills,
Just to give him some temporary relief.
Why don't we try and give something back,
By solving the problems we make,
Instead of him being under constant attack,
We should try giving him a break.
Looking after all life is no easy task,
When most problems are in fact man made,
Letting him rest's not a lot to ask,
Our responsibilities we must not evade.
We always demand God should help us out,
When helping ourselves should be the rule,
After all it's his commandments we flout,
Which is not only evil it's cruel.
God is all-powerful but even he needs a rest,
His power to us was always devolved,
We know he'll be there if we get too distressed,
It's for us to get our own troubles resolved.
If we took more time to help each other,
Conflict wouldn't merit a mention,
The curse of evil together we could smother,
