  • THE MAN AND HIS TALL TALL HOUSE
    (Written by: P.A. Jervis, Jr.)

    There once was this guy
    Who had a house that was taller than the sky
    He had everything he wanted, everything he'd need


    Now this man was no stranger to the people of the valley
    They worshiped looked up to his house and wish that they too
    Could have the very same fortune


    There were stories of how he got rich and how long it took to build his house
    Brick by brick, inch by inch, life by life, because you know people died building it
    You knew that, right.


    For what people don't know about this man that has a house built to the sky
    Is that man walks around his house weeping and is full of sorrow
    He crys, in his tallest tower hoping that God will one day send him love

    The man today, still remains alone
    But wishes one day to fill his house up to the sky with love
    Not with children exactly, but with love
    But a couple of children to share the love with


    One day this love will come true
    And the man run up to the heavens and talk to God and say "I Love You"
    It's not that he didn't love Him before, but he'll love Him just a little more.
