“Sharing of Misery”

 
“Sharing of Misery”

1/19/13
 
Awoken today to learn nothing new
yet had I paid attention to others
surely not my sisters/brothers
I’d have seen this new world view;
 
Because I’m happy and understand
my lifestyle is being denuded about
belief in the Savior there is no doubt
thus from me the much to demand;
 
Called not a team player in this game
it appears I’ve more than my share
free from worldly worries or care
thus I’m to hang my head in shame;
 
Tenderly to love my children each
embracing and helping all to grow
loving my wife eternally to know
thus to my family I reach and teach;
 
Others sharing in their misery loud
complaining and bemoaning living
nothing looking forward or giving
just waiting in life for their shroud;
 
Believing misery is to be shared today
thus lamenting others found in peace
their anger’s misery on them to release
ignoring my pleas for them to pray!
