Ongoing Is The Process

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)



This life we all are blessed to receive,
Has more risks and challenges.
No one is taught when a child,
Obstacles will be theirs to face.
In a hustled to bustle human race.
Nothing to be taught to teach,
Will eliminate this fact.
Or erase the chase to replace reality.

Truth of one's life to live,
Is a personal experience.
With ups and downs.
Smiles and frowns.
And clowns dressed to impress.
Dressed to represent,
Every ethnicity and forms of life...
To disbelieve God alone has created.

Yet...
We all grow older to witness change.
Well...
Not all.
With a few declaring,
Things done they do will remain the same.

As if the pain to attempt this to do,
Will convince The Almighty...
This evolution that goes through,
An ongoing process meant to improve.
Is a mistake God has made.

In need of assistance,
From those who are familiar...
With chaos to create more of it.
And division to implement.
To appease an unconscious mindlessness.
Done to believe God is left pleased.
By those self anointed.
Who repeatedly refuse,
They are visitors invited to inhibit...
An Earth to respect and not neglect,
The Host and His hospitality.

Or else discover,
What God does to create...
Like none other,
Falsely worshipped to idolize and admire.
To remove all the havoc,
Headaches make to eliminate...
The very ones who can not appreciate,
All that God for them has done to do!
With no options provided to them given.

'God seems to misunderstand,
Our wants and wishes to demand!
And...
We need to remind Him of it!

'I...uh...
Not to be a party pooper.
Or accused of it.
But...
I suggest not making God upset.
And,
We should begin expressing...
More of our thankfulness!'

'Have you lost your mind?
Remember,
We are Christians.
Not Atheists!
