Lucrezia Blanche Aguilar Poet Free verse

Prayer of a Penitent

Lord--
turn not away Thy face

Thou desirest not the death of a sinner

Thou desirest for men to come unto Thee
so that Thou mayest gather them
the way a hen gathers her flock

i have not been true to Thee
i have not harkened to Thy voice

Beata Agustin November 6, 2024 at 6:38 PM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
