Topic: Salt and Pepper (07/24/14)
In cooking, you sometimes make a dish that turns out bland
If that is the case we add salt and pepper that already is at hand
We are to be the light of the world and the salt of the earth
Doing these things we will aid in bringing the lost to rebirth
When it comes to liking it hot there’s nothing to beat the pepper
Enjoying one of these delicacies will make you step like a stepper
Surprisingly the word”pepper” in the scriptures was not used
When I discovered this bit of information it left this author confused
All of us have the capabilities to spread love as if it were salt
If we do not reach people whose lives are tasteless it is entirely our fault
We must sprinkle salt on everyone we meet to accomplish God’s intent
To fulfill this mission we can consider it finishing a blessed event
Dispersing the above mentioned love is easier than you may guess
People are hungering for love and attention waiting for you to bless
To give love for some is quite a challenge and an awkward endeavor
We should give it our all and keep in mind; it is better late than never

I liked the longer lines and the rhyming words.

I don't think there needed to be any more punctuation since the rhythm of the words showed the beginning and ends of thoughts.

It may be better late than never but when will our own "never" come to be. Will it be to late?

Nice work.

This is a well-written article. I agree that there are people hungering for love and some people just cannot give it, perhaps because they have never received it. Those of us who can, it is incumbent on us to do it as we can make a mighty difference to this hurting world.
