Envy Exposed
By: Mary Havran

Green with Envy does not describe
The color worn by this foul Sin
For green is the color of living things
An Envious Heart has no life therein

The color Blue for Envy will not do
Blue is the sky where freedom sings
In skies so many dreams take flight
An Envious Heart has no wings

Envy cannot dress in Yellow or Gold
The warm colors of the life giving Sun
An Envious Heart is so bitterly cold
With no joie de vivre for all of life’s fun

Envy dare not wear any shade of Red
A color so linked to precious bloodshed
Blood is sacred not to be wantonly shed
An Envious Heart would bleed others till dead

Purple is the color of Passionate fire
An Envious Heart knows only Hate’s ire
Pink is a color where innocent youth may abide
An Envious Heart is tired and shriveled inside

Nor can Envy ‘s color be Black as night
For the star filled night is laced with light
Envy won’t wear Purity’s symbolic White
An Envious Heart does not own such a right

Envy cannot even lay its claim to Grey
(Muddled mix of color though be as it may)
Grey is the color of softness seen
An Envious Heart is hard and mean

What Envy wears best is Invisibility
So denuded of Soul none would wish to see
No color born of Heaven will suit it well
An Envious Heart will be naked in Hell

Another one of The Sins. This one is Envy, supposedly the worst of all the sins out there. My comments on this picture...? I finally got a use out of that hideous ring I was given. xD YAY!

Well it looks like it would be painful if you punched someone with it. Maybe it could be for self defense.

Or it could be the place where the Arc of the Covenant is burried. It sure is big enough. xD

xD So was it one of those gifts where the person was in a panic to get you a present last minute and they just picked up the first thing they saw?

Oh well then there's no getting rid of it. You're stuck with that thing for life.

You could make it into a horror movie. You try to get rid of it, but it keeps coming back. o_O
