The Snare

Do you rejoice when visit's trouble upon your kin do you with verbal twist do cast your snare when hurtful things present to neighbor men and with sarcasm say you do not care For time and chance in trouble are cast we down what man among you escapes a razors edge all mankind in this condition sometimes be found and are taken surety for a pledge When curse you call for evil fall upon another soul and show within your heart of sin know that evil will take it's toll What you call down will in karma drown not where you place a curse you may find the words unwind and happens in reverse What is so bad and makes us sad that parents do not teach vindictive tools bad instruction fools and cannot a heart to reach Can you bet if you cast this net your own foot not be taken in verbal spill to cast your will in your own device forsaken And if be heard the spiteful word what opinion do you think of you beware will others share and from your friendship shrink If someone shares your confidence and pains of heart has told do you use their trust to fence and take from them their gold If want you love you must learn to others not be cruel for you find same return not kind and yourself as thought a fool sources Pr 1:10-18 James 3 COPYRIGHT © 2009 C Michael Miller
