Another blessed message my fr4iend. I pray that those who read these fine words will be challenged with their need of Our Great Saviour. (Love that hymn too by the way, "Jesus what a friend for sinners, Jesus Lover of my soul."

Hello, Roy,
As always, in a touching song-poem, you've made scripture vivid and relevant to today.
I love .. flower's blight.
Christ is risen, friend - hallelujah!
Have a lovely week. :)

Comment from STEPHEN A CARTER
CONSIDER:
From lips, no word, or SAD complaint,
This man was God, WHO'S SON WAS BLESSED
Becoming flesh, was heaven's best! CAP...Heaven's
I wonder why, OUR Saviour's name,
Is cursed by man, HELD IN DISTAIN
To die for all, SAID, "Finished, done!"
SPARROW WHO died in midst of flight,
Majestic trees in forest fall,
WHILE dolphin cries its deathly call!
Regards:

Thank you, Steve, you have done a good job. I will consider those suggestions most assuredly, there are awkward moments, I can usually pick others rhythmic faults, better than my own! And have a good holiday! And thanks for the great review! Blessings, Roy.

You have certainly got that my friend. Some things I may have to retain for ' integrities ' sake, but thank you so much, Steve, you are invited to do that as much as you like. Bless you again, Roy.

Dear Roy: I will NEVER give someone a 'fluffy 5'. Old school I guess.

Comment from Dean Kuch
This was brilliantly conceived, Roy! Such majesty and pure, raw power to be drawn from your well chosen words here. He submitted to the ultimate sacrifice, so that all of mankind could be saved an eternal damnation. And yet, there are many who refuse to accept his gift, to discard Him as a fairy tale, no more important than Mother Goose. It must literally break His heart.
A beautifully penned piece, my friend!

Comment from Righteous Riter
Good use of the aabb rhyme scheme. Good end rhyming. Good perfect rhyming with bush/hush...blight/flight...fall/call. Good alliteration with bound/betrayed...crowned/cursed...wonder/why...forest's/fall...dolphin/deathly. Good eye catching photo followed by a message that makes me happy to have chosen Jesus as my Lord and Savior.

Comment from amahra
What a beautiful Ode to our Father and His Son. I loved the poem for its meaning, but mostly because it was so well written. It rhymed very well, not forced. And the rhythm was fantastic.
