I Am My Brother's Keeper

Faith
Hope and
Charity, 
An eye single 
To glory of God,
Qualifies each person
For the work of salvation
For all his brothers and sisters
Caught in traps of never ending sin,
Trying to find escape in Babylon.

Great job Ms. Charlene, please keep up the good work and stay well. This poem has a technical side to it, just makes the reader try harder to learn.

Charlene, , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT

Skat, my dear, thank you for the warm welcome to Poetry Soup and the kind comment about my poetry. I am sure you have figured out by now I am a Christian. I dearly love writing poetry that coveys my faith in Jesus Christ. I would love to be your "FRIEND" and after church today I will "drop a hello" and tell me a little about myself. ((((HUGS)))) Charlene
