THE SNAIL,THE SHELL..

political

A pauper once said: Your Majesty’

 What a dreadful thought of an empty future…

Where is the smile on the faces of our children?

Where is the joy to redeem our tears?

Please! Where is the consoling heart to seduce our pain and fears?

Are we to chase and never to cease?

…Now the snail has lost its shell

 Could Ben and dad replace it?

 What of all the ritual and baptism?

Oh no! Now you must also find it extremely hard to rescue our fears’!

 

                                        Kind Sir ‘Your observation is extremely odd!

                                        You mere say, but forget humanity turns

                                        Their thoughts towards the empty

   and transitory nature of riches and honor

   Everybody said anybody could do the good,

   but nobody did!

                                        What of the danger in hasty determination?

   How about the pretense of reasoning

   The supine indolence of the mind?

Should the snail locate its shell: of what bad or good?

You see! There are too many chiefs, but no Indians

Since observed by, Yours Faithfully GOD’.

Wow very deep wordings again . Perhaps what your saying here is that do many professing but little followers . Too many talk but little or no walk .
