      I know it is a bit homerish but I submit a haiku to add to the poetry.

        Re: Poems about the Gospels

        What a shame! After returning from a two-year-absence, I have been greeted with the inability to create a thread. Even fervent bouts of prayer did not help! So here is a poem about the bastard children of the world.

        Sometimes I do wrong, but I never forget
        That God will be with me always.
        And so it’s my job to sling each epithet
        At God’s sworn enemy, the gays.

        A Christian’s idea of good, wholesome fun
        Should not include butt penetration.
        As Baptists, we should stand together as one
        And get these gays out of the nation.

        These lazy-day gays as they spray their perfume
        Have no place in the United States.
        To our Christian values we all should exhume
        And shame these men who masturbate.

        Won’t you join with me, brothers, in freeing this land?
        Will you rise up against these hell-spawn?
        Let’s all pray together that mighty God’s hand
        Will crush them and let them be gone!

          Poetry is a great way to praise
          and expertly tuned to shame all the gays?
          Bravo sir!

          Your condemnation
          of back door penetration
          has given me reason to shout

          If one fag has been saved from damnation
          with the help of your rhythmic word combination
          that's something to be proud about

            I have another Haiku for the collection, inspired by the beauty of Joel 1:5 (the plagues).

            Joel 1:5
            And wail, all you drinkers of wine,
            Because of the new wine,
            For it has been cut off from your mouth.


            Ahem, here goes:

            Addicted to misery
            The sweet sting of sadness
            W
            hite wine

            I'm not 100% about the syllable count - I find it a bit homer-ish getting into the details like that.
            If I have seen further, it is by standing on the heads of others.

              Re: Poems about the Gospels
              I don't know what a Haiku is (some sort of fish?) but would like to acknowledge Judges as particularly encouraging, helping us to understand how bad sin really is, particularly from God's point of view, and the steps He's prepared to take in the face of wickedness.



              Judges 11:1 – 12:7 (excerpts)
              Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valour, and he was the son of an harlot … Jephthah fled from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob … and it came to pass in process of time, that the children of Ammon made war against Israel … The elders of Gilead went to fetch Jephthah out of the land of Tob and they said unto Jephthah, Come, and be our captain, that we may fight with the children of Ammon … Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah … and Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD'S, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands … And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child … And she said unto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth unto the LORD, do to me according to that which hath proceeded out of thy mouth … he sent her away for two months and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains. And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed … And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.


              All pretty unambiguous and Jephthah's good character comes shining through, even to the extent of ruling Israel as a Judge (under King God, the Israelites not yet having erred to the extent of demanding a human king) which let's face it is some accolade. The poem will be in green.



              He was so brave and mighty,
              His mother was a trollop,
              What e'er he turned his hand to,
              He dealt a massive wallop.

              Ammonites are dreadful scum,
              Their ethics fully blown;
              Jephthah made a deal with God,
              How could he have known?

              Somewhat moot since God knows all,
              And at this point His spirit was motivating Jephthah so nit-picking secularists really have their work cut out here,
              The rout complete he headed home,
              His daughter knew no fear.

              To root out sin God killed His son,
              But Jephthah kills a daughter,
              A “Thank-you, God for giving me
              This most impressive slaughter.”

                    Oh! My goodness, dear Brother Now; how this has blessed my old heart -- to read of such a dedicated prayer from the depths of your sanctified soul. I can see, all so clearly, that the works through you in a mighty way.

                    I'm reminded of a lovely, heartfelt poem that Sister Clementine read at Mother's funeral (the burial), just before we went for afternoon tea, over at Sister Lulubelle's house. Oh, she made the most delightful summer berry tartlets and cardamon & orange shortbread -- I'll never forget them. And, did you know that it's always best to sprinkle finely-granulated sugar over your shortbread as soon as it is brought from the oven, just before cutting it?

                    Anyway, this poem always brings a tear to my eye, and you may be well-advised to get a handkerchief before reading this, as well:

                    The Lights Are On

                    Up in Heaven,
                    Stars are shining;
                    Down on Earth,
                    We're all whining.
                    Save a place,
                    At ' table;
                    We will join you,
                    When we're able.

                          Good effort. Normally a poem has a second line, to rhyme with the first. We can help you if you're a bit stuck. Just need a word that rhymes with Satan.... hmm. Baton, no bacon, Daytona. No I'm out.
