The Bible Q'uran and CookbooksA Chapter by Richard B. BerrySometimes I cringe in envy, for what some appear to have. Solace and peace of mind, not to mention eternal salvation. No matter how hard I've tried the leap of faith evades me So many questions, no answers as doubts fill my mind Too easy to see the hypocrisy within their way of life As the book has justifications For every sin that comes to mind How can I be wrong, who is right Is this all some bizarre lie? I'm too simple to look for signs for anything can mean anything I know that God is there beyond anything I can define As much as I've doubted I still come back to this what is all this and what does it mean? Yet others seem to have this connection to something so perfect so simple that they are willing to die for it and kill for it even if it does not make sense Though they are so convinced oftheir righteousness Oh I feel like such a fool even when I know God is there has even communicated with me at least that is who I perceived it to be I still do not see what they see especially in the context of such flowery words that cast such random damnations No matter how many texts I read,the Bible,Q'uran or others makes me feel I need to submit to a host of rituals Though there is wisdom in those books but then there is also wisdom in cookbooks © 2015 Richard B.
