Puzzle Pieces

Puzzle Pieces

A Poem by PoetryofProvidence

I saw a thousand          things today

powerless to impact but in little way

millions of children no meal will eat

but we can't decide    upon which treat

 

There is no water to drink     that's clear

weapons and bullets            so many have fear

the leaders of religions their children molest

praise their God and commit            incest

 

Against this system            so many swear

to effect its changes way to few dare

cars and houses with sensual delight

clouds that clarity to do            what's right

 

Countless lives           passed through history

too many cannot define      it's mystery

bodies rocking their prayers to the wind

wondering when will         their suffering end

 

Those that are weak       the predators prey

using excuse          that they are built that way

Babylon rides            the back of the Beast

they have been deceived                from greatest to least

 

Even those who carry the             true Gods name

have put            the teaching of Jesus to shame

they have put good for evil           and evil for good

accuse those who tell truth            that its falsehood

 

Twenty thousand children      one religion confess

fathers and elders with rape cause duress

the numbers are too miniscule I fear

this number is only two continents              I hear

 

With pleasure and entertainment            buried our mind

but our choice and voice our actions define

politicians and merchants and news forecasters

religious leaders whose influence           are masters

 

But the finest teacher                  of recorded time

confessed the Truth taught what's divine

asked all mankind to consider his word

till your decisions and choices               prove you've heard

 

The finest qualities             displayed among men

could all them             be found in him

yet not one among man have I found

the depth of him       can equal abound

 

No life      has any true power

without its commitment          to good in its hour

I saw a thousand things        in my mind today

like a moving picture             on permanent display

 

Matthew  12:3-21    15:1-20

Jude  1: 12-15
