Perhaps This Is Why...

If
HE came
back again,
we would do it
too.

Hello again, Gerard! I took your suggestion on the word and added it to the poem, "What They Say And Play." Works well in the poem, from (II Thess. 2:3) . Agape, Moses

U are so sweet and kind Gerard.. years ago I had three soft back 8 x 10 books in print and they flew off the shelves... lots of the poems are on site here ... did not have them republished as costs were so high and today they are through the roof ..to do on your own... the newer ones I do not as yet but .. a publisher involves money too and this working girl got laid off weeks ago and cannot afford to print books now.. OH but what a dream.. when time is right perhaps.. glad u enjoy..ideas?

Yes If He came back all humanity of the mind would still do the same thing, for the darkness of the mind, would not seen any better the second time around. The change has to come from our Agape cores, for there is no power to see except from the Agape, Truth. Thanks Gerard, for your support in this contest. Agape, Moses

I have often thought this same thing....sad, yet oh, so true! Well done, Gerard! ~ Carrie

Sad but that probably is true given how little we seem to learn from the past. Interesting perspective on the topic. Best wishes in the contest. Karen
