On the Reception of Children
The pics on the wall are eleven; They testify to the Lord of heaven, Who gave each one of them to us. Ours was in Him to trust As He brought them into being From our praying to our seeing. Oh we prayed not for them to come (We were happy to drink that rum); […]

Justice and Mercy at Once
Love existed eternally in the past. Love – the Father, Son, and Spirit – Needed nothing else to love. He is love itself and ruled all above And below and everywhere to know, And there was no where one might go To escape His gaze or presence. This One made the world and man And […]

A Healthy Termination
(That Musical Sound) Whenever an abortionist is terminated And sin from the people is segregated, Rejoice in the triumph of justice, The victory of truth among us! When the blood of the innocents is spared By that musical sound of the bard Playing on the trigger of a gun Sending those murderers on the run, […]

What if Mom (Hadn’t Gone Past Three)?
Now if Mom hadn’t gone past three, There wouldn’t be a Bessie;And if not past four, Who would draw on the door? Why there wouldn’t even be a Perse! (We’ll get around to that Merse.) It could be a lot worse What if we had no Alethea Or no one to trouble or bother ya? […]

Blossom Blows Away Like Dust
Isaiah 5:24 Lest your root become like rot And the anger of the Lord gets hot And your blossom blows away like dust, You better buck up and get it right. Got all night to get the Law in your sight! Get a grip on the Word; don’t flow with the herd! You know His […]

A CRS Sitiation!
It’s a CRS sitiation; Ya know I Cain’t Remember Sheeit. Got to do what I can t’ git ‘er done, But it’s hard without nary a wit! So I do what I can when I can And when I think it’s done, it’s done. Ain’t no other way to say it; It’s just that I […]

A Good Conversation
(Jim and Sam have a talk. Sam gets it right!) “What ‘cha doing Jim?” “Just drinkin’ my gin. Actin’ like a jerk; Sent the wife off to work, Findin’ in life every perk. When things go slow Go to the One in the know Chat with that Man above All about that heavenly love. And […]

A Friendship
A friendship takes a minimum of two; A fellowship, perhaps, at least three. So it is with the holy Trinity. From eternity they knew each other The three in love all together. ‘Twas a long time before the world And finally bringing man on the scene. The eternal God of the universe lives As He […]

Vain Foundations
What of those who want their names Remembered in the pages of history? To secure such extension of life They create an enduring “foundation” Bearing a name for all to hear Rather than one for God Whom all are called to fear. O pitiful resort to vain prideUnable the coming death to abide.For what name […]

Isaiah 5:24-26 Redux
Their root will become like rot; Their blossom gonna blow away. They done dumped the Law of God: Thrown out His very Word, Causing His anger to burn. So He stretched out His hand struck ’em down, Shakin’ those mountains all around. And still His anger wasn’t spent Waitin’ on those fools to repent He’s […]

Women’s Rights (Etc.)
Women’s rights and slave (holding) rights Are not always right! Butchering babies is just not cool; It’s the wicked practice of the fool. Nationality, race, and colors May be a matter for others, But religion is the crux. Not just a means to make bucks, But the basis for our lives Guiding husbands and wives. […]

Truth or Limelight?
The harder the truth The softer the popularity Got to choose which to love And whom to serve. Truth or limelight Which will it be? Will you be free? Be forgiven now forever; Does not matter what your sin: Sodomite or parasite Maybe something deep within. There is much for you to do, Turning to […]

“Sir”!
“Sir,” they’re callin’ me! I’m gettin’ old! Or people are getting more respectful. I have never been called, “Sir” So many times as I have these past weeks, Than in all my years prior, Just walking around Wilmington, My regular routine stroll! What a greeting, most droll! “Sir” I am, just by gettin’ old. Might […]

Be Forgiven!
Be forgiven now forever Does not matter what your sin: Sodomite or parasite Maybe something deep within. There is much for you to do, Turning to the One who’s true; The God of heaven is with you. After falling on your knees Above all, Him you please. 0648 on 1 July, 2022

Iesous, Xristos, Theos, Uios, Soter
Iesous, Xristos, Theos, Uios, Soter The fish we see there And here and everywhere, The sign that Christians passed around Without uttering the slightest sound. Security was the cause of the symbol Whether in earnest or on a stroll Providing fellowship for the saints Enduring pagan neighbor complaints. The word they spoke was “ichthus” The […]

Short and to the Point
“Women’s rights” and “slave rights” Are not really right. Butchering babies is just not cool; It’s the wicked practice of the fool. Selfishness expressed to the max; Make others to suffer so you can relax.

Planned Parenthood and Parents
Planned Parenthood and Parents Don’t get to dictate who lives or dies. When a child is in the womb, We must put up with all his cries And whinings which will come. He must stay in our care No matter how all fare Puttng up with his fits And tantrums from day do day As […]
