a poem in my pocket

This simple poem reads like original McGuffey Reader style!

“TRY one small Bite,”

hissed snake to Eve;

By APPetite,

they were DeceiveD.

It was our FALL

when parents fell;

As rebels ALL

were Doomed to heLL.

Adam hid from God

in Guilt and Shame;

His Son walked sod,

JESUS, his Name.

His Mission here:

Be Reconciled,

relieve our FEAR,

make me God’s Child

By FAITH we can

know Love, hold Peace

and from our bond-

AGE find Release !
