I’m sorry, God, for what You must look down and see,
Cursing, lying, murder and such near nudity.
My fellow men are taking sin to the edge,
Rejecting or neglecting their wedding pledge;
Signs of satan’s bonds – whom Christ died to set free.

There was an old giant of Gath,
Whose heart held unholy wrath,
He talked to David of a dog,
But was soon down like a log;
And David was on the Royal path.

I rise to write a line of rhyme,
Stealing sleep from my night-time
Knowing if I don’t get up and write it down
Tomorrow it will be gone (frown, frown L)
Mission done, I happily back into bed climb.

The nephew of Abram called Lot;
Sodom he pitched toward, Sodom got.
His daughters were lost;
Sons? Oh, the high cost
Of gaining just what he’d sought.
[Gen 19.14]

A bishop was to be un-blamed,
Second, a wife was named.
“Vigilant” was number three
Of what this man was to be.
And – – – God’s grand list is STILL the same. (1Ti 3.2)

Oh, how to describe the man Cain?
His life was sad and vain,
His soul was unstable;
He killed brother Able,
And answered God back without pain.
[Gen 4.9]

The next tome tells of many kings
Shows Solomon knew a lot of things
Lists his good temple prayer
Says Queen Sheba was there
And Elijah a victory brings.
