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

Haiku : made me laugh. Thanks.
ReplyDeletePoem : HE always forgives. One just needs to be humble and ask. I think that is what I have done in my post.
This is beautiful.. well done..
ReplyDeleteHaiku was witty and authored well to suit the theme..
ReplyDeletePoem, so true..each word of it haunts you!! It's only HIM we need to think of....pray for our souls to be washed of sin!! Amazing one!!
Oh, yeah, I had to chuckle at that haiku!
ReplyDeletehi jim! Long time...
ReplyDeleteI like the first little verse, "lying isn't one" - indeed!!
seven sins were told by men...not by God...maybe a sin is just a matter between God and us
ReplyDeleteBoy, am I glad that lying isn't one of those seven sins!!
ReplyDeleteYou've artfully penned a relationship that relies on forgiveness. Well done.

This is very true Jim!
ReplyDeleteAs Christians we do believe in that, and never tell that to the atheist or pagans!
And lying isn't one? Ha ha...nice! I wish to believe in that too! You must convince me...
The haiku is hysterical- True Jim!!! I had trouble with this prompt- let me know what you think... Have a great weekend!
