I shall pretend for a moment that I neglected to relay to all my readers a most important and upmostly (it's a word now) vital piece of information. In reality, I just forgot to say that I crossed off #2 on my bucket list which is "write poetry". I decided to do that in the morning a few days ago, while still in bed so give me a break. Here it is...
you spout off your philosophies
the same way that you say that we do,
what you don't see is that you're just like me,
you believe in something and defend it too.
"Those Christians, they don't know what they're talking about"
Well how is that so? Do you?
no one is above or below,
we all crawl at the human line
but those very few whom you called fools
The Creator calls "children" and "mine"
so why persecute, if you "know" you're right?
it's no use trying to put us down
because by the grace of God, we'll get up again
and in His army, for His name, we will fight
good job, Jessica - you just blasted this out of your mind and onto the blog page, eh? Keep up the good work (writing blogs AND poetry) and we will all benefit from your insights... <3
ReplyDeleteThis poem of yours reminds me of "Only Grace" by Matthew West - do you know it? One of the men in our church sang this during the offertory time this morning - GET BACK UP, GET BACK UP - yeah!!
I LOVE YOU, dear one...
