Faith VS.. Greed

We live by faith chafe as we will at creeds
Working the plow Of Law to fill our needs
Sleeping like children though we toss and sigh.
Rocked in our Graded swing across the sky
We read in every sunsets line of gold
Sunrise shall come; the glorious fact is old
Still, ike young children fearful of nights gloom.
We wait the pale moons RISE the stars white bloom
Whether we mock pray or wondering scan.
Or dare to measure God and show His plan.
Back of our blunderngs stand Love and Pain.
And our still faith in Laws eternal reign.
Whoever waits upon tomorrows sun
Trusts God unconsciousy. And everyone
Who hopes gives hostage to the futures thrall.
And by that hope declares his faith in ALL
