ORDINARY FOLK

 I learned a long time ago

 folks don't always tell you stuff

 that tickle your ear

 Or show you things  that mesmerize your sight.

  Often the real them is exposed

 and you have to endure, even if it's wrong or even if it's right

  Folk beg and borrow, sometimes steal

  You know that kind of borrow without asking.

  A different person than you thought

  you revealed in their unmasking

  "Yea"  folk will get you caught up

  More than you can believe

 They will be the one, the one you never thought

  would navigate this decieve

 Talk behind you back

  Smile in your face

  "Yea, you heard that before"

 The thought of them being your friend

 "HUMPH" what a waist

You gotta be cautious

 there are plenty of snakes in the grass

  Sliding all around your feet

 Ready to pounce, chew you to pieces

 like a juicy piece of meat.

 Now am I saying all you encounter is  bad

 and on your guard you must uphold

  No not at all  that's not what I'm saying to do

  just know that if it ever goes wrong

 not to be oblivious to what I have told you.

Folks do make mistakes

 yea this is true

  but for real, for real (yea 2x's)

  Yep so do you.

  In these mistakes  growth often is in order

  to create a stronger self

  However some take longer than others

  to grab a hold of it's wealth.

But listen don't judge them

 only pray

  each day moving blessings

 their way.

  So when these folks get to talkin

  and by any means aim to take the joy in your day

  Lift your hands

  guard your tongue

 and bless God you know a better way.

  Open up

  let Him in

  listen to Him say

  practice this action, day after day.... Growth Begins  

 

  *Endless perfection will only be when we all reside in heaven*
