One Single Impression: Seven Sins

.


.
Seven Sins

There are seven sins
that I would never commit
lying isn't one

- - - - -

The Man Who Said He Never Sinned

There was a man who said he never sinned
I lead a good life and God knows me well
God knows you well but, but do you know God

Only one man never sinned--Son of God
Seven sins or seventy there's just one
Sends you to Hell--Ignore not call of God

Jesus Son of God Man who never sinned
Wants your trust and belief He is waiting
Ask Him He will forgive and save your soul

One Single Impression: Wind

.


Wind

Blowing wind gently brush my hair
I love feeling your warm air rush

Misty morning I feel your kiss
Wet slobbers of love on my face

Gentle breeze noontime in the shade
Hugs with my drinks afternoon puffs

Evening cool your slaps leave me cold
I long no more for your embrace

Loath your ilk fresh and warm no more
Fickle wind it's over, goodbye

One Single Impression: Endure

.
Endure

Endure was told to me,
be tough and buckle up.

We don't have to endure.
Precedent from the bard,
Shakespeare himself I bare:

"BRUTUS:
... I had rather be a dog, and howl the moon,
Than be such a Roman.
CASSIUS:
Brutus, bait not me,
I'll not endure it. You forget yourself
To hedge me in. I am a soldier, ...
" *

Hence when told to endure,
bait me not, I'll suck in
fight like a soldier man.

*Act IV, Scene III, Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare (link)
