QUESTIONS
QUESTIONS
BY: Keith H. Seymour
Is it easier....to let the living go
After
they have abandoned...you
Or
they dead...whom you have loved
but
never had to chance to, or were prevented from saying goodbye?
Is it easier to accept the differences of others
who are different....even... if they never accept you?
Or
to deny....a known truth....to be accepted
by
a large group of people...who insist
the specific truth must be buried
for the world to be comforted....even if it is comforted with a lie?
I have felt alone... in a room full of people,
that claim to love and respect me.
Even though they do not understand me...and have never really tried.
I have felt alone... when nobody else was around to comfort me.
Yet, I have never figured out
which feeling of loneliness is worse
or
even if they are equal.
If God intended for mortals to know the answer to various questions,
why are some questions not answered when sought?
Will people ever know the answers to these unanswered questions?
If so, when? If not, why not?
It is all so...questionable!

Understanding a Truly Valuable Gift
************************************
BY: Keith H. Seymour
I have so little
Yet at the same time…I have so much.
I have less then most,
Yet so many more have so much less than I.
So is it sinful or vain for greater wealth to vie?
Even if such added wealth, would not be hoarded by me,
But shared with even needier children of God
So often ignored… by society?
I have all that I need…God willingly!
Still my needs want more than I have… materially.
I certainly have more material wealth
Than HE…whose head was adorned by thorns…
And whose body enshrouded “The first HOLY robe.
It was HIS test, trials, and tribulations… not mine
That were far greater then Peter, Moses, and Job!
Though I possess by mortal Standards,
So very little wealth,
A far higher power has Gifted me
With a “wealth of Friends,”
That some may number… “just a few.”
It is “this generous spirit” that reminds me…
I am to extend the same “Loving Gift”
In a manner and time that “God… not I decides
“For me to.”

The value of Worth
*****************
BY: Keith H. Seymour
*******************
Don’t kick me… when I’m down.
for even… the most subservient of creatures
will use its last foreseeable breath to maintain
the remainder of its
Self-worth and Dignity.
Likewise, I am willing to lose everything
Except for my dignity. I will never give up
the thing that makes me… special and unique.
So, in spite of what you or others may believe
I am still a talented person of importance and worth.
So, though you may see me as, or make me an outcast
You cannot bring me down.
For, even if you bleed my heart or bruise my soul,
I know I am a person of value and worth!
I may even have less material value than you.
Yes! That may certainly be true!
However, unlike me
You are known not to have
one iota of the honesty value attached to you!
Therefore, while I may certainly have less than you…
I am certainly not less of a human than you.
Rather,
I am more!
