They Rested In Their Mai Mai

They rested in their Mai Mai
Waited patiently
Then put down their guns
Ever so discreetly

They had supported their family
With uttermost integrity
And their community respected
Their open honesty

Duck season came
And not one fire was shot
They waited and wondered
Why some ‘loose the plot’

Then one shot was fired
From another direction
Our societies ‘code of ethics’
Then came under inspection

.....Many valuable lessons
Were taught in THIS SEASON
Evil left upon this earth
Is for a good reason

When one chooses the good
Strong character is formed
Yield to the ‘easy way’
Then with sorrow we’re adorned

.....The Proverbs reveal jewels
The Conductor expressed
In the Mai Mai OUR ATTITUDE
Is revealed then we’re blessed!

Psalm 25 verse 21

“May integrity and honesty protect me for I put my hope in you”.

(A Mai Mai is a make shift hiding place and shelter for duck hunters)
