Charles Reese Poet Pantoum

The Broken

There are those who are so broken
There are those who are oh so lost
They do not know what was spoken
The price He paid it was sins cost

There are those who are oh so lost
They've never felt the love He gave
The price He paid it was sins cost
It's the only way He could save

The never felt the love He gave
Because of all the lies they heard
It's the only way He could save
When on the cross hung the Living Word

Because of all the lies they heard
We must speak the truth with love
When on the cross hung the Living word
We now have hope that's from above

We must speak the truth with love
They do not know what was spoken
We now have hope that's from above
There are those who are so broken

Janice Canerdy May 18, 2022 at 1:34 PM Charles, your pantoum is excellent--well-written and deeply reverent in its description of the Lord's sacrificial love and those broken people who haven't realized . . . Janice Charles Reese May 19, 2022 at 10:17 PM I;m glad you liked it.
