Jokes for everyone

sorenbarrett

On everyone god shines the sun
black, white, yellow, red, brown
shades large and small till day is done
gives health to beggar and the crown
 
Grows fruit for patriot and traitor
bathes saints and rapists with rain
neither judged, victim or perpetrator
practical joker, punch lines in rock remain

God laughs, sings and dances
jokes in overflowing joy
gives and takes teases and romances
but does not play with people as a toy

    Not sure I fully understand this one (that ain't nothing new) Soren. Thought you were a not-God-but-spiritual- person.

    Rich write nevertheless.

      Yes Dave I use the word god in this poem so the religious may understand the concept of nature as god not some personified man in a white beard. Sorry for the confusion. Yes I am more of a nature spiritual person
