A Lesson From Heaven Through The Agency Of A Cockroach (a True Story)
My first instinct was simple, to one all could relate
I was overpowered by a thought, a simple thought to consider
With great plan and purpose, was this cockroach surely made
but where was born this eagerness to kill, or for me to be afraid?
With
great difficulty going against my nature, I did then dare
no more justifications were acceptable to me, for I was now aware
Although small and ugly was my limited perception, I could still care
With this cockroach, nothing would stop me, and would I now spare
Lessons throughout life, does our Creator continually teach
empowering us with free choice, and potential growth that we reach
By contemplating our thoughts, and their true meaning that we may find
a change of heart in our actions, and a true desire to be kind
