“Speaking to the Wall”


Mosiah 4:30 But this much I can tell you, that if ye do not watch yourselves, and your thoughts, and your words, and your deeds, and observe the commandments of God, and continue in the faith of what ye have heard concerning the coming of our Lord, even unto the end of your lives, ye must perish. And now, O man, remember, and perish not.



“Speaking to the Wall”

1/5/15

 

Over 50+ years of writing

wondering if anyone hears

truth-telling seems redundant

as it’s of no value to ever lie

thus in telling the truth

am I just speaking

as it were ‘to a wall’

often wondering of this

too much interference

too many telling opposite

too many not listening at all

while the very few who do

might wonder why the truth

wanting to know why

written is what I write

speaking to the wall

all these many years

the message the same

as Mosiah has said

(see Mosiah 4:30)

that we must be doers

obedient in all things

or in vain have we become

wondering if anyone hears

writing 50+ years the same!
