Sun Shines On the Righteous

Pray, be good, do good, think no evil Do no evil, see no evil Pray, in the unrighteous, do derive not any sort of thrill For, do remember that the Sun shall shine on you, as does it will Should you want to harm others The winds shall change their course And on yourself shall be struck loads of disasters Pray, do mind this Earth's great curse It does say that as you do so shall you reap So pray, on your enemy's fate, do weep Do even pray for his good keep Such shall help you climb out of this dirty pit into which you have fallen deep Mind, shall you take on the path of goodness With more and more of the sun's rays shall you be blessed Such says this rightful note That the sun does shine on you when you do choose to be right Adverse may seem this note Adverse when this world with adversity has been wrote But pray, do remember that the Holy Books do speak of being good Do remember even that for us, sinners, the great Son did shed His blood Selfless we should all be Selfless, humble and full of mercy For the example of that Son we should all follow Why, by acting such, you would help to make of life's journey, a pure flow Righteousness does mean having no malice No jealousy, no greed, no evil No harmful intents, no dark skill Righteousness does imply being made of love and grace! 14 April 2016
