Poem
It Was Just One Night on the Town Tatum and her friend had planned and looked forward to just to out and have fun and for once in her life and get drunk, she never once considered or believed the consequences she would suffer and how her whole life and all her plans would appear now to be totally sunk! What is only one night she thought I’ll live it up with no restraints and everything called sin to be completely and wholly removed, she would party and then the next day I’ll deal with it she thought with whatever the cost even if it would have me singing the blues! Most times than not the youth longs to have their lives without rules and just live totally free, free of the curfews and questions and the “no’s” not really knowing what the costs of this kind of lifestyle will bring. The night started as she thought with several drinks and lots of laughs with her newly gained friends, and ended up in a stranger’s room now knowing how she arrived there or even with whom she had been. The next day when she awoke and went to her room how pathetic and sick she looked and felt, she called her office and took the day off as she said I must have picked up a bug but not realizing someone had seen her and had already to her boss they did tell. On the 2nd day she returned to work only to find out the night before she had been seen, living it up and drinking and carousing with several men but she still had thought it was so fun and keen! Three months later, she now discovered that she was now with child, but Tatum said to herself, “I have been raised to know the Lord and for that reason she would carry this baby even from a night that had been so wild. Tatum had been taught by her mother that a baby no matter the conception was a precious gift from God, and for this reason, she would carry to term her child and teach him to love the Lord with a life that is free but no longer wild!
