God Willing The Devil Never Cared

Storms come, storms go,

Nature never changes

No matter which way

The wind blows.

 

Fires burn bright, Fires burn out,

The ashes will never last

For they’ll be swept away

To higher grounds.

 

Death is tragic, Death is everlasting,

It is never the end though

As long as the stars

At midnight are shining.

 

The devil may whisper

In my ear everyday

But I see God with my own eyes

Every minute of the day.

I enjoyed the flow of thoughts. Your statements true and honest. Last lines are needed. Need to stay on the good path and don't listen to the Devil's whispers. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry.

I love the last stanza,
"The devil may whisper
In my ear everyday
But i see God with my own eyes
Every minute of the day.

The more I see God the less influence the devil's whispers have over me.
I enjoyed reading your poem, profound.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

[Einstein Noodle]

lofty thoughts to feed on ... how easy to strike the ol' devil deaf and dumb and blind by simply looking in God's direction .. and the glory, mystery and evidence of creation ... i enjoyed the strength of rhyme and rhythm ... seems the form almost built itself as a result .. i am blessed with the deep spiritual message in "God Willing The Devil Never Cared"

Thank you sir... glad you could appreciate the message.

Without light, we wouldn't have shadows; and the night always flees with the sun. We walk between the two striving for the light. From whence we come, so we shall return. Great poem.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Why thank you very much.

things are only as dark as we let them be---but if the positive light shines within us...the stars keep shining...
