A child must burn his finger to learn,
That there is danger to discern.
Beautiful colors on a frog attracts the eye,
But one touch, you could surely die.
Something can look good to eat,
But could be deadly and lead to your defeat.
The Lord uses drastic measures to teach us right,
Whenever we wander away from His will as we loose sight.
He will surely allow us to trip over the traps we’ve set,
So we will remember Him and our mistakes we will not forget.
They could be minor or extreme,
After they occur we can only wish that it was a dream.
Drugs only shadow your mind from reality,
Using them only hurts you and devours your sanity.
Sin can even lead to the death of others,
Then you can no longer hide or stay undercover.
For my family and myself,
I will avoid sinful pleasures.
Then I can have joy,
And journey from drastic measures.
