Analysis of Litterbugs and Other Pests
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
There are always more unbelievers
Then there are believers
And there are always more trees
Then there are beavers
Otherwise the whole world would be damned
It’s always a good day to witness
In living out your faith
But don’t forget where it comes from
There is never a moment to waste
God will not waste a single word!
