Poetry

I was playing my poetry game, sometimes that helps me when I’m sad

———————————————————
Poem in Iambic Pentameter:
Does God look down on me and shake His head?
“what must I do to have you seek me first?”
He’s given me so much and yet I lack
the character to build a holy thirst.

While busy with the problems of the day
I put Him off like some intruding task
yet when I’m troubled or I am in need
I’m quick to go to Him freely ask.

Did He postpone His journey to the cross?
Did He make man when other chores were done?
Was He too bored to listen to my prayers,
too stressed to be the Lord and Holy One?

No! He is always open to my pleas.
His word is always there in black and white.
And He has told me time and time again
To seek Him first as that is good and right.

Opens up the eyes inside my heart

Jesus
with loving whispers seeks my heart
and tells me I won’t fall apart
I find I need him more and more
for He is what I’m looking for.
