Sonnet: Lies, Truth And Justice

A curse has fallen on a holy land; The wrath of God will follow soon on it; Their evil ways invited Makers hand; Upon the hilt, the rod of God will hit! You cannot go on speaking lies for long; ‘The world is bad’, and thus you justify; The end is important for any song; The creator, man’s works must glorify. Mans ways are futile without grace of God; By evil means, you cannot do much good; Much rain will turn a soil to swampy sod; Excess will turn to all a poisonous food. Truth cannot hide in leaves of Justice’s book; The taste of food is lost if you ov’rcook. Copyright by Dr John Celes 19-05-2015
