Let the War Begin

.
Forget about politics,

And the London Olympics;

Odds are very high

All-out war is nigh,

Trailing July 4th picnics!

Even Tho You're Gone

Yesterday I went shopping, just me, during the onslaught,
To buy things you’ve always wanted for Christmas I thought.
Checked all the stores for good sales,
Found a pretty ring in Zales;
But, like your gifts the past six years - it remained unbought!

My First Fishing Trip

Went with dad to Port Isabel to learn to fish,
‘Cause to catch a fish I told him that I did wish.
So to Purdy’s Court fishing pier,
We went with all our fishing-gear.
Yes, that fishing trip with dad I’ll always cherish!

There we were, him giving me casting instruction,
Then he baited my hook with a live crustacean,
I cast out high in the sky.
To catch a big fish to fry,
But instead, caught a sea gull - as consolation!

I nabbed a couple and barely passed the two;
But while studying in Provo,
I got versed on their bull. “Hello! ”

Per the Mormon’s founders, here’s some things they claim:
That there’s more than one God. Well, if that’s their aim!
They’re flurting with disaster.
By denying The Master
The LDS’s church exist all in vain!

They preach that Jesus and Lucifer are kin,
And the blood of Christ does not cleanse all sin.
