Poem: Little foxes

It wasn't a mighty giant
That made King David fall
It was just a little housewife
Having a bath outside his wall
It wasn't an army of warriors
That brought Samson down
Delilah's tears were tricky and
Reduced a leader to a clown
Apostle Peter boasted of devotion
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
One servant girl by the fire
Took all his fire out!
Eve took just one bite of the Apple
Lot's wife took just one look
Satan's baits are tiny
But it hides his deadly hook
Little foxes of gossip or anger
Can destroy a vine in a day
Few dead flies in a perfume jar
And we must throw it all away
So pay attention to the small stuff
Be vigilant in this spiritual fight
The roaring lion that seeks to devour
comes singing as an Angel of light.
