Don'T Be a Bully

Don't Be a Bully!
'Each person who plans harm for weaker than you are,' A bully! Thus, defined invites another's pain! Perchance a victim once himself, he seeks new pride In acting out, and never thinks to look inside? Too, sins of parents plague a child, empathy drain, A token child in display case ('loved?' from afar)? Are children crying to be born? Or fantasy Of parents who divine demise is future's gift, Insurance plan against approaching illness, death? Or hymn of praise (though God is dead) so sweet is breath That parents share though life seems short and time be swift! Though you may fail, let all praise Life in ecstasy! Does 'fear of God' bring light to life or turn a man To Sin? It's Joy to heed some sage advice, from one We count our friend! To countenance new truth at all Requires a leap of faith that might be large or small! Relationships count in the end (if fairly won), The 'peace of God's' a better choice if you're His fan.
