VISION - Blogtober 2020

Vision

The prophet said God's plans are for my good

You led our family to be revered

Good little family we volunteered

Firmly on the righteous path we all stood

Followed all precepts like I knew I should

At your masterminding God's wrath we feared

Just a facade things not what they appeared

A savior's teaching you misunderstood

My faith did shatter when the scandal broke

Selfishness would tear families apart

Church torn asunder left a broken heart

Your action made your religion a joke:

     Battered and hopeless I now lack vision;

     stand condemned guilt ridden unforgiven

--Shenandoah Lynd
