The Answer (Voices) 2004

Post by moses lee »

A man left without his woman/ Three children without thier mom/ Three answers to an angry Prayer, I never thought would come/It was a place where everything was free/Childrens laughter filled the air/ Of all the places to get an answer,/ was at a childrens Church fair./ I seen a light shining, on the motherless child/ And through all the pain and loss he had, I seen a aura of peace envelope him, that gave him a little smile./ A silent whisper spoke/ "Self centered, lost,confused one, can't you see?/"These children are under the protection and love from my Son and Me."/I, crawled inside myself,looking for a place to hide/I felt three times the rooster crowed/Three times I denied./ Maybe I'm a little neurotic,/ Maybe I think too much/ But I'll never forget all the children and the motherless child, that were covered by God's touch. -end- Moses Lee... To the staff and members of The Abundant Life Church.

Just one question, what's the slashes and why not use the old carriage return? I'd like to read this stuff, but its all ran together into a clump.

Here is an example:

A man left without his woman
Three children without thier mom
Three answers to an angry Prayer, I never thought would come
It was a place where everything was free
Childrens laughter filled the air
Of all the places to get an answer,
was at a childrens Church fair.
I seen a light shining, on the motherless child
And through all the pain and loss he had, I seen a aura of peace envelope him, that gave him a little smile.
A silent whisper spoke
"Self centered, lost,confused one, can't you see?
"These children are under the protection and love from my Son and Me."
I, crawled inside myself,looking for a place to hide
I felt three times the rooster crowed
Three times I denied.
Maybe I'm a little neurotic,
Maybe I think too much
But I'll never forget all the children and the motherless child, that were covered by God's touch. -

end- Moses Lee... To the staff and members of The Abundant Life Church.

So, I am assuming when you put a "/" what it represents a new line. If so, don't put a / and hit your enter key instead to go to the next line. Ya like the hat, eh? It's officially called a "houndstooth" hat.

"/" Usage

Generally, the "/" separarates lines or "stanzas" of poetry...
