Lovie Divine Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

This little poetic story is inspired by the parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew the 25th chapter; but it’s likeness is described much differently. It begins cutely as it tells of two brothers who have a special date to get ready for, for which one of them promptly prepares, The other brother’s laxidasical attitude is often annoyed by his brother’s warnings to heed the time. Just like in the Ten Virgins parable, there is the dreaded and avoidable leaving behind that is now the fate of the neglectful brother.

Spontaneous Tate and Procrastin Nate

SPONTANEOUS TATE AND PROCRASTINATE

Spontaneous Tate and Procrastin Nate, 
brothers getting ready for a special date.

Tate said “Nate, there's lots to do.”
Nate said, “Yes, I know! Just worry about you!”

Tate said “Nate, oh my, just look at the time.”
Nate said “Hey man, it's on my mind!”

Tate said, “I fear we'll meet our doom, 
if we're not ready by a quarter of noon.”

Finally Nate looked up, just minutes before the hour,
Tate was already groomed, when Nate hit the shower, 

Nate's chance was missed, he was left behind, 
Tate made the date, forever danced and dined.

The lesson to learn, taught to us by Tate,
Be spontaneous to the call of Christ, never ever procrastinate.
