Stacey Brown Poet Rhyme

What If

What if hell was undeniably real?
And souls of good people, 
Satan could steal?

What if that hell was as a great furnace?
Where a smoke arose,
And the fire therein could totally burn us!

What if heaven actually does exist?
And in its radiant court,
God’s grace is kissed!

What if in that heaven Jesus does reign?
And only through him,
Entrance is gained!

Just what if these things really  are true?
Would that make a difference?
In the things that you do.

What if you determined to take a stance?
With good or evil, 
Would you choose dance?

Some might say the choice is obvious!
What if I say,
God is your audience?

Panagiota Romios July 10, 2020 at 11:13 AM Congratulations on a poem of significance. Daver needs to understand your poem may not have many comments.Not unusual here. Some of the worst poetry has scads of comments. With 38,000 poets...most read! But have no time to say boo! The poem needs no blessings. Stacey, keep writing..never write for applause.

Daver Austin April 19, 2016 at 2:14 PM What if no one has the guts to say anything about your poem, Stacey? This one deserves more than two comments. Love, daver Panagiota Romios July 10, 2020 at 11:16 AM Daver, there are people here with 60 years writing experience. They also get few comments. I was told a long time ago.
