Heart Road

There were Old when there were New.
The Old are No More and the New are Old.
Now the New are gone as the dew,
And you will be old and cold.

No No More old only ever more.
Some No More have more that some.
Some No More serve ever under the roar,
And some serve sver under the Son

You the New and you the Old,
Come and pore over your sore.
Will you recieve the ever Son cold?
Will you reign forever more?

Follow the Son, righteous and bold.
Start when new before you're stone.
Tis not easy to change when old.
Habits when new harden like bone.

Grow and learn.  Prolong your life.
Wisdom and understanding seek.
Read the Word and meditate.
You will learn the way of the meek.

Pity the Poor and walk upright.
Ear hear and hand keep the law.
Rejoice for glory in God's sight.
You will honor your Ma and Pa.

Confess and forsake thy sin.
Always fear the wrath of God.
Covet not of thy friend or kin.
Happy and saved from the rod.

No More will you graduate.
Eternal joy at his face.
Eternity is not fate.
You have fought and won the race.


    This is the first poem that I can remember every writing, so 
please tell me what you think.  I wrote it on Thursday night, April
12, 1996.  If you didn't get much out of it, some notes on it follow.


** Law of Death
There were Old when there were New.
 In the past there were old people and new(young) people
The Old are No More and the New are Old.
 The old people are dead(No More) and the new people are old
Now the New are gone as the dew,
 Now the people that were new are dead
And you will be old and cold.
 You too will follow their footsteps and become old and die

** Afterlife
No No More old only ever more.
 Once dead, people don't grow old, but their spirit is eternal
Some No More have more that some.
 Some dead are better off that others
Some No More serve ever under the roar,
 Some dead are under the roar of the lion(Satan) for eternity
And some serve sver under the Son
 Some serve under the Son of God for eternity

** Question
You the New and you the Old,
 You who are old and you who are young
Come and pore over your sore.
 Think about your sin and it's effect
Will you recieve the ever Son cold?
 Will you coldly recieve the Son of God?
Will you reign forever more?
 Will you reign with the Son for all eternity

** Answer
Follow the Son, righteous and bold.
 Follow the Son of God with righteousness and boldness
Start when new before you're stone.
 Start when you are young before you are set in your ways
Tis not easy to change when old.
 It isn't easy to change your ways when you are old
Habits when new harden like bone.
 Habits that you form when you are young will stay with you

 It is now assumed that you have followed the Son

** School
Grow and learn.  Prolong your life.
Wisdom and understanding seek.
 Seek wisdom and understanding
Read the Word and meditate.
 Read the word of God and meditate on it
You will learn the way of the meek.

** Public Life
Pity the Poor and walk upright.
Ear hear and hand keep the law.
 Listen to the law of God and the law of the land and do them
Rejoice for glory in God's sight.
You will honor your Ma and Pa.

** Private Life
Confess and forsake thy sin.
 Confess and stop your sin
Always fear the wrath of God.
Covet not of thy friend or kin.
 Don't try to get the posessions of others
Happy and saved from the rod.
 You will be happy and you won't be punished

** Your reward
No More will you graduate.
 When you die, you will graduate from your physical body
Eternal joy at his face.
 You will have eternal joy in God's presence
Eternity is not fate.
 What happens to you in eternity is not determined by fate
 It is determined by what you do now
You have fought and won the race.
 (I'll leave the last line up to you)
