Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Looking for definition
term of art, the bounds
the legal jargon
“Who is my neighbor?”
The plain meaning, legislative intent
looking for limits

An expansive response, a case study
a fact-based scenario
judging from the circumstances,
the details deciding the issue
the spirit of the law
in the definition of neighbor.

December 10, 2008
Luke 10:25-37
The lawyer’s question and
the story of the Good Samaritan
