Larry Norman:
" And your money says..in God we Trust.
but it's against the law to pray in school
You say we beat the Russions to the moon,
I say you starved your children to do it.

You say all men are equal all men are brothers,
then why are the rich more equal than others?
Don't ask me for the answers I've only got one,
that a man leaves his darkness when he follows the Son."

I didn't know this thread existed here
Allowing you to 'poetize and bring some cheer
So read and grin
And wonder when
I'll get the words aligned and into smiling gear

There once was a man from Peru
Who drempt he was eating his shoe
He awoke in the night
With a terrible fright
And found it was perfectly true

So, God rest ye Merry Gentlemen
And ye 'genteel women
As ye lie down to sleep
And count countless sheep
Or read this from Computer den

For rest is good for the soul
As life takes its tiring toll
All life's stress
Can make a mess
Unless we pursue the right kind of goal

Mommy, wheres Daddy

Mommy,
why doesn't Daddy
live here anymore

drape his arms about me
as I lean against his side
or hold me on his lap
while we sit and watch tv
call to me before I rest
"have you brushed your teeth"
kneel with me at my side
when I talk to God
come with you to tuck me in
before I go to sleep
kiss me on the forehead
and wish me pleasant dreams

Mommy,
why doesn't Daddy
just come home to stay.
