Poem from this weekend
I've had some people asking about a copy of the poem from this week. For my old school Porch peeps this will sound real familiar.
EVERYONE is welcome inside
the sinners and saints
the frail and the faint
the rich and the homeless
the happy the hopeless
the red and the yellows
the hyper the mellow
the blacks the whites
the ones that start fights
the gays and straight
the true the fake
the simple the scholar
the open the follower
the addict the abused
the forgotten the used
the liar the cheater
the gossip the stealer
the shorts and the sandaled
the dockers and pleats
the tattoos and piercings
the prudes and the freaks
the punks and straight laced
the old and baby faced
the jocks and geeks
the timid and meek
the married and single
the ones that just mingle
the widow the divorced
the one’s flying off course
the atheist and skeptic
the one’s that don’t accept it
the muslim and mormon
the believer in God’s son
WE ALL NEED GOD’S GRACE
WE ALL NEED A FRIENDLY FACE
WE ALL NEED A PLACE TO FEEL SAFE
I John 3:18
Let us stop just saying we love each other; let us really show it by our actions. NLT

Reminds me of "Breathe Deep" by The Lost Dogs. Remember that song?
great song Jonathan. Lost Dogs were awesome. You might need to weigh in on my book when it comes to the early 90's scene!
great poem............
I love the poem. I hope we can create this environment at the Stirring.... your poem encouraged me to look at people in a different way, and to welcome ALL people.
