My Mom Always Said

My mom always said to me If they are in love just let them be And if they are hurting no one leave them alone Don't be happy when from hate you hear them moan. Don't tell them how to live their own life And don't ever inflict them with your worries or strife Just because they are nothing like you You have no right at all to tell them what to do. Just think do you want them to be the way that you are Maybe judgmental, racist and prejudice near and far Do you have a right to tell them how to live Is it always harder to take than it is to give. We love our children no matter the shape of their faces And we also love them no matter of their races And let's not ever forget the Bible or a spiritual hymn Let's not judge them. If they are in love let them find their peace They are not hurting you or anyone in the very least Just because they are nothing like you or me or us That gives you or no one the right to swear, judge, mock or cuss. What if they were your brother or your sister Would you slap upon them a blister, Or would you disown them from the high heavens above Just because they say, they are in love. Let's love everyone as if they are a child Let's scream it to the world out loud, What if that is your son or even your daughter Would you happily lead them to judgment and then to slaughter. I remember this on my mother's dying days How she always gave love it's greatest praise Remember you don't judge or condemn them my friend God, will judge us all in the very end. Randy L. McClave
