Devil on a Diet

May the Devil get behind you.
Love and joy step up and bind you
May you feast on sweeter fates
And let misfortune scrape the plate.

"We find what we convince ourselves we deserve."

That is exactly the problem in this world.

"We Deserve" NOT!

After your pm I read this a different way and I agree with your notes. That/'/s the beauty of the written word it can be interpreted just like the Bible in many ways. That can be good and bad too :)

I agree with James on both his comments. We really
dont deserve what we have been granted. With the
written word each reader perceives it a different way
and takes from it what is needed by their soul at that
particular moment in time.

//May evil never tempt nor hinder you
And love and joy take you by the hand and guide you
While greener fields are laid out before your feet
And life itself becomes the sweetest treat//

You never cease to amaze my friend.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
