Beata Agustin Poet Personification

My Roar

Tremble at my roar
Hailing my authority as reigning jungle king
Such beastly nature of mine propels everyone to
Hasten toward haven's hiding place, or flee for safety…
No wonder that even God Almighty
Through the Scriptures in 1Peter 5:8
Admonishes mankind against the foe with this stern warning:
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary
 the devil, as a roaring lion, 
walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.”

~~~~~~~
Divinely speaking
Hearken to my voice of rulership
Expressing power and dominion…
Epitomized by Jesus Christ, “the Lion of Judah” 
Who reigns forever, strong and powerful
According to Revelation 5:5 of the Bible.

Daniel Henry Rodgers October 27, 2023 at 9:25 AM Beata, your poem "TREMBLE AT MY ROAR" is a powerful and evocative meditation on the power and authority of God. Your words are both beautiful and thought-provoking, and they challenge us to reflect on our own relationship with God. I especially love the way you juxtapose the image of the roaring lion in 1 Peter 5:8 with the image of the "Lion of Judah" in Revelation 5:5. This contrast helps to understand that God is both powerful and compassionate. It is a true work of art. - Blessings, Daniel
