Death's travesty

To think thatmancould ever be putbeneaththesod;whenmanis unborn,the image, the likeness of God!

What I would like to do

What I would like to do is start again:Be a more faithful servant,Put first things first,Render unto Caesar and to God the appropriate things,Love myself enough to love my neighbor well.

VIVA!*

My neighbortore my trellis down:It lay there broken,all dark brown.
Once, my soulthrough gloomy roads was walking.
O, perfect Father,You never fail to smile at me.

It's true!

God made me happy, well, and strong—Nothing about me can be wrong.
