It doesn't take much to make me feel small.......

I have found that I can be here Full of mirth and good cheer I can pass for a friend or be a worst enemy Don’t get my guard riled; I am free This earth is mine to roam From mountains high to seas with foam I will not take arms against you No matter what you try to do I’ll support you with everything I have I will not lie for you or your conscience salve I will not feign that I’m good or bad Be very vain or covertly sad You take the path you want to follow I have my own that walks through hill and hollow Sallow people point fingers at me ‘cause I won’t take sides and assuage your frailties Go your way, do what you want and how you must Just know so much on this earth saddens me with disgust Don’t suck me in to your plots and schemes I have my own fortune to seek, dream my dreams Let me sit here in peace this day I hold my arms out to keep you at bay Sin go away, Devil be gone I turn for Heaven’s help at dawn.

A resounding AMEN!!! This poem, to me, is the essence of what poetry was meant to be. At its best when magnifying The Creator of Heaven and Earth. Excellent thoughts skillfully shared in a memorable way! Thankyou George .

I know we have a conscience for a reason, it is to tell us if we are doing right or wrong. Good advise George. Thank you for sharing.
