Best Chaplet Poems
We use a rosary to pray Chaplet of Divine Mercy
For those who don’t know or love God
To convert sinners, pray for them
None of us deserves God’s forgiveness
However
Whenever we pray for His forgiveness, He does
He loves us so much
Many people in our world who are sad
They think God will not forgive their sins
They think He’s mean
St. Faustina was born a special child
She felt she has chosen to transmit the message of God’s mercy
You can always see Him in the Tabernacle
He is always there…
We can offer our difficulties to God in reparation of sinners
Those people who don’t love Him
He appeared to St. Faustina’s cell
Ordered her to paint an image she see
And put below it “Jesus, I trust in You”
Jesus desired for the image to be honored around the world
Message of Divine Mercy is Jesus Christ
Loves all of us
This love was shown when God the Father sent His son to die in the cross for our sins
God the Father is always ready to forgive us when we ask
That’s why we should always confess to the same priest
Because he knows us and give us advice
God is offended when someone doesn’t love Him
That person’s suffer because they don’t love Him

DAMASCUS
Your opinion palpitates
on and off.
Riding on the horse of
pride,
You stumble across
your soul.
Ignorant about the
chaplet of pride,
Creampuff due to horse
pleasure
You ditto to continue.
Angels are in
accordance
Whilst you ride on the
horse of pride
On the road to
Damascus.
A great voice descends
on you
In the chambers of your
memory.
The tempest washes
your opinion away.
Even though you are
power drunk
And you are pride drunk,
Kiss goodbye to your
opinion,
Set out of your
opinion's hair
And dive into a
humble opinion
As you have more than
one
String on your bow.

Mother won't bleed--
Mother won't bleed again to the breaking song
according to the gospel of insanity of man:
She says life is in the hands of a madman,
she says Sunday is not enough to bless the
memories of her son who lost in the hands
of astraying bullets.We'll hold down Borno;
Mother won't bleed--
Mother won't bleed again in that house on
the other side of the street holding this tale
of her daughter with the etagere before she
took her last picture from the universe.
And the pastor said to her ghost
"dust & unto dust you shall return"
It was ash Wednesday & the frond hasn't
been burnt to ashes, would mother bleed again?
The leather missal is no more & Mary
could not attest to it provocative missing...
When we saw tears in the eyes of God,
We knew this house on the other side of
the street started this--the madness in us all.
We could not see also the body of the missing Christ.the figurine. the chaplet.the rosary.
Mother won't bleed again to this course...
But her memories did not start in Benue
Where she beheld laughing ghost of humans
celebrating how her homeland tortured them,
It started here in that house on the other side
of the street where her two children died in fear. anxiety. depression. tears. forgotten.
& she taught us how to dry our eyes before Sunday service.

Forgive me Lord, for I have sinned
-- again, I have sinned again :(
I'm uncomfortable in my own skin
disgraced, defiled, by my own sin
Do you know everywhere I've been?
Did I hurt You, seeing all my sin? :(
Is this world safe-- to run, within
to You, when --I miss Your arms again
I'm ashamed and repent; lost my grin
wishing I'd never --ever-- sin again :(
Is there one reason now, to begin :O
-- again-- if I have sinned again??
With MercySong, sweeter than a violin
You woo me back, past my chagrin :D
Have mercy on us! Okay? You win! :)
You forgive and forget, again, again
But that's no excuse to sin-- again! :(
Doing wrong to teachers, friends, or kin
Your Truth sets free each sincere human
Open to Your Grace to be freed from sin

Sr. Faustina had prayed...
for souls to be un-decayed
her Divine Mercy crusade--
was for a long time delayed
her cool Diary -- forbade!
its publishers, too afraid!!
its devotees, all dismayed
but the Marians obeyed :)
its Message refused to fade,
and the editors -- inveighed
my fave part: when she crocheted
to please Goodness Itself -- rayed
His Blood and Water --- displayed
to seek our soul's worth (mislaid)
to restore our hearts/ persuade
to follow His path-- yet unmade
through Mary's pure Heart: our glade
protect us from Sorrow's blade! ----->
by His new Chaplet-- allayed
with Mercy Song, serenade...
usher in Healing-- pervade!
let my soul not be decayed

"Were a soul like a decaying corpse so that from a human standpoint, there would be no [hope of] restoration and everything would already be lost, it is not so with God. The miracle of Divine Mercy restores that soul in full. Oh, how miserable are those who do not take advantage of the miracle of God’s mercy! You will call out in vain, but it will be too late!" (Diary, par. 1448).
I am intrigued when Jesus-Host took her hostage:
biolocating-- to *chapel-ize* that strange cottage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My computer told me "chapelize" was an unknown word... would you like to add it to the Dictionary? I clicked YES! Woot woot my first new official word! I have so many more... this will be fun to add to. :D
[Inspired remotely by the fact that the Carmelite Sisters I used to hang out with consider hospital/ nursing home rooms to be like another "chapel" to be with/ pray with someone, especially the elderly.
Also inspired directly by the memory of reading this before: "In her Diary, St. Faustina writes of terror — the terror of dying souls as well as her own brief moments of terror. In one instance, Jesus asks her to help Him to save souls by praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy for dying sinners. She records, 'I found myself in a strange cottage where an elderly man was dying amidst great torments. All about the bed was a multitude of demons and the family, who were crying. When I began to pray, the spirits of darkness fled, with hissing and threats directed at me. The soul became calm and, filled with trust, rested in the Lord' (Diary of Sr. Faustina: Divine Mercy in My Soul, par. 1798)."
p.s. Shout out to Rhymezone too for my hostage-->cottage connection!
Offer roses for any needs-- bloomed rosebuds from prayed rosary beads.
A poor holy soul reposes-- from our Little Crown of Roses.
We must pray a whole rose garden, to help sinners' hearts not harden!
And keep in our hearts the pure priest, with white roses of prayer increased.
Plus don't forget the Chaplet too, and Consecration prayers renew...
Dear Merciful Jesus--
making Holy Eye Contact with You is a start
to gazing with trust on the Blood & Water
---gushing forth from Your pierced Heart!
