Believe It Or Not

Believe it or not He swore by the day he sighted the earth This step he took Was not aimed at piercing anyone But to show his appreciation At exactly the time (or on time) Had he known the blessed wouldn't be pleased With this gesture He would have Hands down And waved for naught 'What are my mistakes' He asked Cos his heart is mixed This mind is now full with mix feelings The memory of strange letters that gloomed at his eyes Believe it or not He had never wish for anything If nothing will make him live a simple life And meet his Creator in good shape Then he will be satisfied with that hope Than a hope of something Where he wishes for nothing A.O

This is very good. A lot of times we all have those mixed feelings, but they don't last. at the end I only wish for God to forgive my sins. Thanks for sharing.... Lucilla
