AN: Thank you very much to everyone who reviewed, I really don't know what to say: Needa S. (Yeah, I was sad when I wrote that poem, too lol), Scottishhighroad (Thanks so much. Your review really touched me), silentescape (I got a lot of reviews from you. I really don't know what to say, though... your reviews were so nice. I've never gotten praise like that for my poetry. And I know, I do need to work on my vocabulary!! Can't believe you made it to chapter 3 or more... I know it's a little boring but it will spice up a little later in the story I promise. You think my style is relaxed and natural. Ha! I try, thanks. And yes, I'm going somewhere with the pizza thing. You'll find out later. Thanks for the advice on Butterfly Underwear... I know, I need to stop explaining things so fast. To tell you the truth? The "wake-up smack" was at first just somethign to go along with the previous rhyme, then I realized later that it really did fit in the poem. I'm glad you think it's okay, because I thought it was forcing the rhyme a littel bit lol. I posted 'What Happened to This World' on and got some not-so-positive reviews on it. I'm glad you didn't take offense, though. Thanks for the welcome!Woah, my author note is turning into a paragraph!)

Everything He Did For Us

First He gave us the world

Then animals and flowers

He gave us the sunny days

And cool spring rain showers

He gave us food for us to eat

And appetites to go along

Voices to communicate

And praise Him with our song

He wanted a perfect world

For us not to live apart

But that was impossible

We weren’t all that smart

Eve ate the apple given her

We would do the same

Adam sinned, too, though

He also was to blame

The Devil offered them great power

Told them God was lying

And they believed him of course

Then peace started dying

After all He did for us

And had yet to do more

He died for all our sins

And yet we still ignore

Everything He did for us

His deeds big and small

We take for granted

Every day, yes them all
