All of the Past Delete

All of the Past Delete

Are there actual abilities in your soul?
It remains sinless and always whole;
Things outside of our soul commit sin
Which is done over and over again.

Between soul and sin is a separation
And continues in process of preparation
For us to heaven which we will glide
All else is thrown away and left aside.

The soul is that single, simple thing
God back to Him wants to bring;
All else far away will be caste
As it all becomes part of the past.

About our past, God could care less
So He has instructed you to confess
Sins of burden on body He will remove
And yourself to Him never have to prove.

Why do we become complacent and growl?
Stop praying to God and pitch in towel
All of the answers we soon will know 
When to heaven we eventually go.

By then my friend, it never matters at all;
Am now in heaven after hearing God's call
And what He said when me did great,
" You're with me and all of the past delete."

An interesting comment. I wish God would start making many others start to think about something besides themselves. We have so much to live for with a desire many would die for to got to heaven and be there forever. A princess who is a member of Society of Menses. That would also be interesting. Email me your latest poem to [email protected] so I can read it.

My poems always like to be read by other people as well as myself as I proof read it. Joy is the heart and soul of poetry writing. Envy should be avoided. You can quote me on that.
