A
poem - I am working on this "I am a nice guy" image. I
tainted that image somewhat so I have shaved my legs (in pentence) and wrote
this poem:
Dodger Blue
I was walking with the Lord
And
He was talking to me
Walking and talking, hoping I'd see
A
Cloud by day, a pillar by night,
But I just couldn't see Him cause of my
plight (I'm human, you know).
He said, John, don't you see,
can't you see.
It's not about you and me,
Its about those cotton
picken Dodgers
I said, Lord , I don't understand
I'm trying to see
but I'm just a man and you're the Great God Almighty talking to me
about
those " cotton picken Dodgers" ?????
He said,
Well,
papa John, here's what I've got in mind.
It seems to me that when we're in
church, we do just fine -- you and me.
Then you leave to do what you do.
You shut me up in this bilding.
You expect me to just sit here and
wait for you.
I'ver never seen a game, I've never warn Dodger blue.
LORD, I said, I'm seeing what you mean !!!!!!
I'm
understanding your complaint.
I do the best I can, but, in the end, I am
no saint.
Oh but you are, He shouted.
I'm just asking
that you take me with you
I want to see a game.
I want to wear
Dodger Blue.
So we did some shopping and to my surprise,
We
found a Dodger jersy that was just His size.
And we went to a game,
Him and me.
And we watched them win.
And He said to me, I really want
us to do this again.
And I was sure the boys on the team wanted that
too.
Cause I hear them say, as we walked away, the Lord sure looks
good in Dodger blue.
Have a good weekend -- it's been an
awesome week.
John Smithson
love you guys and I don't even know
ya.
