My Godfather wrote me something I couldn't refuse

Poems
By D.E.M.
BEHIND THE DOOR
God save them and make them part of their home
Keep calling to those hearts 'till they're no longer alone
Let them know that you're the one that can give them a chance
With a fresh look at life that will change circumstance
Though there appears to be no worth
yet, there's somewhere on this earth
The differences we see are no longer the chasms of our mind
But, instead, if we open our hearts we no longer need that door to cry behind

JIMMY AND JENNIFER
Jimmy doesn't have much to look at for tomorrow
His daddy's been gone since the age of three
mamma's doin' her best to fill in for the sorrow
brought about by the kids whose daddy he sees
The future looks grim for my little friend Jimmy
There's no wisdom or knowledge being put in his heart
mamma's got a new boyfriend taking up her time
A babysitter all day and now one for the night
It's such a fright
Oh Jennifer, the sister of Jimmy
A beautiful face but blank stare in her eyes
She'll be the leader of few and the follower of many
For the pain in her heart there is no disguise
I've seen that look in her eyes
Suffer not the little children
Let them come unto me
Well we'd better think twice
if we're teaching them naughty or nice
Not gonna do what they hear but what they see

'Thanks to an old man with a young heart--it's becoming brand new, again.'


Revelation 21:5a (New International Version)
"He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!"
