Christian Cockroaches

" No room at the Inn"
they said when His cockroaches
were born.

and in the middle of their
lives.. the cockroaches
loved by the Son of Man, like
Him have no place to lay their
heads.

And at the end
"Father Father why hast Thou
forsaken us" they cried
.. as they died

nailed by the shoes
of human beings

And then their souls
to Him soared in bliss

Only Love can be
created by the Source
of All Love

*****

ELEVENTH HOUR VEGAN

As God can decide
if the 11th hour worker
receives the same pay
as those who have worked
all day
so God can decide
that those who become
vegan late in life..
receive the same health
and forgiveness as those
who have never stolen
from or consumed an animal.
