 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

poetryofadove
What gain has one from his labor,
The profit the work in his toil;
When seeing his slothful neighbor,
That the government did spoil.
 
I have seen the travail that God,
Has given the children of man;
Exercised to honor and laud,
To carry out His business plan.
 
For He has made everything,
Very beautiful in its time;
And with the benefits to bring,
That always remains in their prime.
 
So, He has put eternity,
Into each and every heart;
For our opportunity,
In having a purified start.
 
Yet so that he cannot find out,
Exactly what the Lord has done;
From beginning to end they doubt,
Because of the actions that stun.
 
I perceive of nothing better,
That would never be good for them;
Following God to the letter,
Knowing that He will not condemn.
 
Always be joyful and do good,
Rejoicing as long as you live;
When you are doing as you should,
Your lifestyle is addictive.
 
Everyone should eat and drink,
Taking pleasure in your toil;
Having the time that you can think,
Your work labored in the soil.
 
To man this is a gift from God,
Because God endures forever;
Nothing will make you become flawed,
Endured love that will not sever.
 
Nothing can be taken away,
Of anything that God has done;
Preventing from going astray,
So that people revere the One.
 
That which is already has been,
That which will and always to be;
No matter as seen or unseen,
Will remain as God does decree.
