Who is right and who is wrong?It’ll be written in a song.Who’s pretending he is right?Who from truth has taken flight? Who are actors playing you,Hoping you will think they’re true?Stage productions wearing thinWhile they look at you and grin.

Trials often multiply.Friends are often passersby.Friendships failing, foes are railing,Hypocrites, they’re often bailing. Feel abandoned, left behind,By those who don’t know they’re blind.Boats are sinking, folks not thinking,Eyes are blinking, friends are finking. Answers now are hard … Continue reading Abiding Peace
