” A Tree is Known “ (inspirational poetry)
A tree is known, thus sayeth the LORD
By the fruit, which it produces
Thorns and thistles, can’t be grown
On a good tree, that LORD GOD uses
Vanity, and hate and lust
Won’t come fourth from His limbs
But joy, and love, and hope and peace
Sprout forth, from those in HIM
Longsuffering, patience, and charity
Spring fourth, within His leaves
But rage – anger, and jealousy
Do not come, from His trees
Slander lies, and all deceits
Are a bounty, of the lost
Where forgiveness, grace, and tender mercy
Are the fruits that share His blossom
