Vincent Flannery Poet Rhyme

In Other Words Part 2

9 years later

I got a call the other day from a good old friend of mine
The one lost in his way who had that infamous last line
Yeah we had always kept in touch he is a good friend indeed
But what I saw in him was such that he had the same need

We came from the same neighborhood and Catholic school
And we were usually up to no good because we we're cool
But life quickly continues but like I said, we kept in touch
Keeping up with old news and religious arguments as such

I never thought he heard a word when I got one in edge wise
And the things that I heard were all the things that I despise
There was no sign, nothing!  but My Lord never disappoints
I heard all the Angels sing when a new child He Anoints

In answering that call that day I heard a completely new voice
Someone who started finding his way as my heart began to rejoice
Oh sure it is just the beginning but such a good start has he gotten 
With any of His lost child's sinning, Our Lord has already forgotten 

In other words, don't listen to what they tell you
Do what God tells you to do.
