There Was a Boy

There was a girl with a talent
and a boy lay in her arms
she spoke to God and promised Him
to lead him away from harm.

The mother went to church alone
and the boy already knew.
Mom spoke to God, He promised her
the boy would find the truth.

The father was intelligent,
always working hard.
he spoke to God and he was warned
the boy should be on guard.

There was a girl with a talent
pressing up against the boy
She spoke a lot but not to God
they failed to find real joy.

There was a boy with many influences
he had a choice to make.
he spoke to God for the first time,
and was shown what path to take.
