Madalyn Rosario Poet Free verse

Christian

You say you are a Christian.  How do I 
know?  How can I tell.   When a look is 
wrongly perceived, or a word is 
misunderstood, do you have the
latitude to have an attitude?

Christian, what makes you different?
What sets you apart?  Where are you 
when I'm stumbling and fumbling 
through life?  Where are you when
festering, pestering issues are plaguing
my life?

Christian, where are you?  Show me the 
way to go.  After all, aren't you supposed
to know?

Cynthia Buhain-Baello March 20, 2016 at 9:40 PM A very probing poem that I think barks at the wrong tree. Labels do not mean anything, we are not obligated to prove anything to anyone, just as you do. Free will makes us choose which roads to take, no one does that for us. Then we take responsibility for OUR choices and not blame other people for not telling us what to do...Christian, Mormon, Buddhist or whatever. Madalyn Rosario March 21, 2016 at 11:04 AM Cynthia, thank you for your comment. That was not my intention. The poem was written from the perception of speaking to myself alone.
