Here is another poem I wrote in High School or Middle School...I can't remember which...I am a Senior in College now:

The Box
A box, what is a box?
It is merely a crude covering of the truth.
To understand what is inside you must open the box.

Flesh, what is flesh?
It is merely a crude covering of the truth.
To understand what is inside you must open it up.

A box, to expose its secrets all you have to do is open it.
To expose the truth of flesh, mortal flesh you must open the mind and the heart to learn of its secrets.

When you look at a box, a plain box what do you think?
When you look at an elaborate box what do you think?

A box can contain many things, but the box itself contains nothing.
Flesh contains many things, but flesh itself contains nothing.

Within flesh is the mind and heart.

A box is just a box.
Flesh is just flesh.
But what is inside is what counts.

Do not get caught up with how the box looks
Evil comes in many forms
Evil can be in a beautiful box
Evil can be in a regular box

Open the box
Look past the covering, look past the box

Great things come in small boxes
 
This has a very good meaning behind it. You never can tell what kinda sin is there just because of the outer appearance of somthing
