Gems For the Soul
~ Gems For The Soul ~
~><><~
I like the days
~ when hearts are happy
Filled with rays
~ of sunshine bright
Times are hard
~ but still enjoy life
Show a façade
~ of contentment even
The soul may be torn
~ but show a smiling face
No need to mourn
~ for tomorrow is a new day
Good friends you keep
~ for they are precious
For them you weep
~ if they should ever leave
Try always to be good
~ and to others be a blessing
Like Jesus says we should
~ if we want to go to heaven
Sometimes it’s only just one parent
~ show them love, honor and respect
They may sometimes pay your rent
~ they always see you as their child
Parents always show respect
~ love and care for your children
God will certainly inspect
~ how you took care of your charge

Contest: Create Your Own Form, Maybe?
This is my own form, the name is : “Inverted Rhyme”
What I did is to rhyme my words that’s in the middle (or almost) of each sentence.
