A Response To Eric Is

“E.R.I.C. Is”

by: Eric L. Boddie


It is important
That the mind possess agility
And because of that
Eric is the exceptionally rare intellectual capability

For those who will challenge
Without the use of common sense
They need to understand
Eric is the extremely reactive intense consequence

To those who keep their Faith
Where God intended for it to be kept
Which, by the way, has never been in man
Eric is an extraordinarily realized immortal concept

For those who try to tempt
In an effort to press the buttons of the controller
Through their greatest efforts
Eric is enabled to reach infinite composure

To those who think
So as not to one day resent
Because most pain and stress can be avoided
Eric is especially rich in insightful content

For those who love
Because God gave it with respect
Through the realms of poetry
Eric is empowered to reveal inspired context

To those living in disgust
On today’s society’s view of life
Because of an increasing lack of love
Eric is the eager request to involve Christ

And saving the best for last
Because that’s how God did the greatest creation
For each eligible lady
Eric is the enjoyable relaxation of intimate conversation

"E.R.I.C.'s Response"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Every Risk Is Captivating
Because the reward is stimulating

Each realm is conquered
When true Love is hungered

Even reality is challenged
If the ego becomes damaged

Eternal Riches In Christ
That's the best way to Live any Life

Every rhyme is characterized
By every necessity to survive

Emphatic rhythm influences change
If the mind possesses infinite range

Evil reactions instill choices
That reject the addition of Spiritual invoices

Every reason is committed
With all the passion the Love Of God Permitted
