With A Thing Called Love (Poem)

Have you ever watched a small bird peck at the ground?
He seems to have it all together - knowing his way around
Some people are the same as they carry on through the day
Living by God's nature - the realistic way
It seems the older we get the more we shun away from the
Gazing at a star as a child - what a secret to unfold
Reality as we know it - has us under its spell
No time to wonder about the unknown - all is well
For we must eat to survive - and food is not free
Therefore, we must work for money - we must pay our fee
Life as we know it with its rules - are not always so easy to live by
But yet they are with us - until the day we die
To try to make a wrong right is a very difficult task
For it means getting an answer - to the many questions we ask
So here we all are - the whole human race - all accounted for
We all fit into many different categories - but we must not ignore
That life in itself is a blessing from up above
We were all created - with a thing called love

But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows."Please log in to respond to this comment.Thank you for commenting DavidPlease log in to respond to this comment.
