Instill Good Poem by Dwayne Banks

When the Sun rises, the air calms down
the Earth warms up, exhibiting the crown
The awesome glory that is known all around
prayers are said for the homeward bound
People are known for the good in their heart
hoping every day, they've done their part
Their part to instill in the children of today
knowing good from evil, is the only way
The way to a pure and awestruck life
finding the goodness, forgetting of strife
Walking amongst the past of our time
lives cannot be turned on a dime
As we were taught, did we even listen?
the wanting of darkness, absorbs the Suns' glisten?
Why as humans do we think the way we do?
wanting to blame others when life goes askew
It has been said 'things happen for aa reason'
why promote darkness in every single season?
When the Sun rises and your eyelids do open
say a prayer to the Lord, don't remain unspoken
