Roger Roger Poet Rhyme

Screen of Awareness

I knew what I know long time ago 
About the concept of wrong and right 
Of good and evil, it guides me through 
It always points me to the light 

Even if light sometimes change hues 
It does not change what's dark and bright 
For, sometimes jazz may turn to blues 
But black is black and white is white 

When someone robs to feed his kid
The fact won't change, stealing is crime 
There's still wrong in what he did 
There are right ways to earn a dime 

Though, God's name may be different 
In some cliques, in some religions 
But in true sense, all are coherent 
That he's the same father of creations 

We have our laws and the commandments 
Where our acts are chiefly based 
And though, there may be some amendments 
The guiding concept can't be erased 

So when temptations come to our mind 
We always know what's good and evil 
We can't just leave this fact behind 
For, we must act for what is civil
