"Too Soon"

“Too Soon”

cji
1/26/14

Too soon to grow up
too soon to be old
too soon to know all
yet thinking you do
forgetting to learn/grow
tight fitting brains
unable to expand
listening to sermons
each Sabbath the same
yet unhearing all
only what’s acceptable
soft doctrine palatable
requiring nothing
for those too soon
thinking they need not
more or even the truth
too soon to be young
too soon to fall down!
