THE GIFTS OF THE GABS
(ref. Genesis chapter 3: 1-7; Numbers 22: 21-39)
The serpent brought the spiritual death of Mankind,
With its gab of craftiness in convincing Adam and Eve.
The sins entered in various forms and multiplied
And the Saviour redeemed from the deep-delved cave.
The humble donkey too had the gift of gab
To protect her master from the unsheathed jab
Though struck three times, remained unmoved.
When asked, the Lord opened the eyes of her master.
Alas! The world has the gabs of craftiness and humility.
To segregate and judge them, need the work of our Almighty.
Waiting for the second coming of the Saviour, our Lord
To save us again from the wretchedness of the world.
