The Wrong Prayer

God grants all your wishes, whatever they may be...

The Wrong Prayer

 

This is the story of a boy,

His heart full of joy,

Just could'ent study well, But his heart had another story to tell...

 

Then his reports would come & he would'ent do well,

His parents would slap him & say ''Go to hell !!''

 

The boy would then sit & cry,

Praying to God ''Please let me die''...

 

He knew he was special & could do something of his own,

He took the paint & the brush,

There his talent was shown...

 

As days passed by & so did weeks,

He painted his own world & touched the greatest peaks...

 

He won praises at home & prizes at school,

He stood tall & proved to the world ''I'm not a fool !!''

 

Alas !! when he'd just started enjoying life,

A huge truck came by,

crushed him over & left him to die...

 

His beautiful life was then eveloped by death,

His life was over & so was his breath....

A beautiful poem with a wonderful rhythm and rhyhm. There's real talent showing up!

Well, the Lord moves in mysterious ways.

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam -
and for a brief moment it's glory and beauty
belong to our world,

but then it flies on again -
and though we wish it could have stayed,
we feel lucky to have seen it ...

I like this poem very much.
Looking forward to your next piece.
