Silenced voice



The voices have not been silenced
Words written down, composed to song
Now they talk to me 41 years later
Strum your guitar, tell your story.
There is only one choice.
Harry, rest in peace. 
Thank you again.

The Question

Who is the answer when there is no question?
Is there a climax when no leading action?
I am grateful for genetic science
And I marvel at Christ presence

I don’t dig deep into the theology
I don’t really care for biology
Wrapped in the warmth of friends
We nurture our children to new ends

Can we help our best traits linger on
In every daughter and son?
Together we must open our eyes
And see that the poison of lies

Step by step, let’s follow a path
To model love rather than attack
Yes love your neighbor as yourself
The answer to the question is good health.
