The stringent structure of this poem helps to explain God's stringent conditions upon life. We all profit from the grace of our fathers, and suffer for their sins. It is the continuum of life. All is in all. And all, no matter how poor, may know God. This is enough to improve each condition.

Perfect poem, I found through the verses a very mature and wise poet. And yes Mr. John, the life is full of contrasts, and every person is living in a total different world from the other. TEN

A contemplative poem…fodder for psyche…masterly brewed…but 1 question? All whys are unanswerable …and indeed not required …only we need action…It’s the selfanswering…and that is the remedy pH 7 to oneself… 10 Ms. Nivedita UK

Some of the inequalities of society expressed in rhymes and rhythm that make the failings and inequalites to not seem so bad in all its truth...yet the message is clear.A 10+++ thanks for inviting me to read this lovely poem with its class-you're great! ! !

John this has all the elelments of the song but with more because the verse outlines the conditions which all decent folk would want relieved. An outcry like this against wrongs needs to be read world-wide. Thank you for the reminders John.

As John Kennedy once said, 'Life is unfair'. Many have no one to lift up a prayer for them. We should do so every day. Praise for your compassionate heart. This is a lovely write.10++ Kind wishes, Sandra
