Eve Roper Poet Couplet

Notes About The Poem

 

First Sorrowful Mystery

Amidst   the Garden of Gethsemane
to dissipate from the sorrow and pain

Looking up to the heavens in discourse
on bend knees in unspoken   recourse

Archangel Chamuel from heaven appeared 
giving Him strength   and ease as challenge   neared

A kiss upon the cheek to flatter Him
in friendship, but gravitate to breach whim

A suffering servant, scapegoat unfurled
meant to die for us, the sins of the world

Alienated ilk malignant growth
transitory moment for lifetime oath

His words are perspicuous, clear, towards 
capricious, inurbane souls, not ignored
