TREE HUGGER

She’s got more issues than a magazine rack.
So much stuff goin’ on it’s hard to keep track.

Always moanin’
Continually groanin’
Never quite ready to start ownin’
all the problems in her life.

Completely content with milk,
Armed and ready to place the guilt
somewhere,
anywhere
than on her own ilk.

Spends her days lookin’ for some BIG SIGN.
You see,
she needs to find some DIVINE
SPARK or burning bush
to give her a little push

Toward GOD’S PERFECT WILL.

Trying to find the forest in all the trees,
She’s got no time to be on her knees.
Funny thing is,
While she’s busy with all this biz,
God’s speaking in a still, small voice,
begging and pleading for her to make a small choice

That will change her life forever.
