Best Churchgoers Poems

My opinion on religion Take 1
I am in the unexpected throes of spring cleaning
Suddenly with no warning 
7 people are unexpectedly arriving in a few minutes for an Easter lunch.
Easter lunch already?
Why didn’t anyone mention this at church last Sunday, Palm Sunday?
Are some secrets just...

A female infant, born blind, was abandoned by her parents inside a church.  The girl grew up not knowing her real parents.  She was raised by a priest.

It was an altar of prayer
but God didn't rise
evil entered the house in a noble disguise.
Bullets were strewn 
sanity was killed
bodies fell as corpses
blood did spill.
And hatred had the victory
on that grisly day, it seemed.

It was pain, agony and cry 
they felt in their mind...

There is a presence to a Sunday morning,
an ease.  People waiting on line for their
coffee seem more animated, less agitated,
friendlier….almost chatty.  The traffic seems
to get along better too.  No schedules demand
cut throat tactics to beat the next red light.
School buses, along with...

!0.  The dragon and atoms compress and converge.
      From Tokyo Bay, Raymond Burr sees emerge.

I.	  The Settlement

          Hickory bark bluffs
          at the blend of two

The massacres of our beautiful people must STOP.
It is unconscionable to destroy so many lives
For selfish and hatred reasons. God, in his archives, 
Have recorded everything, which occurred, from top
To bottom, from sunset to sunrise, from the start
To the end. God knows what’s going on...

Opinionated- And It’s Eyes---


I awoke and flung my mind soul in the heaven
What could there be more purely seven?
'It's that lordship,' I muttered;
And am I the nonbeliever never okaying;
I crave the divine, deponent denominationalism Why?
Death shall bring skies;
What could there be more purely otherwise?
And its...

The world is a her playground,
when her eyes are watching all the players.
She believes in playing god, 
if the reason is good.

Goodness is worthwhile, she says,
but never in exchange for fun.
Changing too much for the better, 
would repress the natural instinct.

She worships nature,
a thing savage...

Isabel was the youngest of four children, dwelling in a large old house,
Nestled under the burgeoning oak trees, in green spring, of no doubts.

Isabel's parents were devout churchgoers, insisting upon going weekly;

Theirs was a tight...

There are folk, in church or non-church family
Abounding in warmth; "Hi folks!" with charm
Least expected ... On the couch, deep memory:
Kind misdeeds, intent ignored: cut on thy palm

NOTE: a pastor may counsel successful churchgoers & find unsorted anger & hurts, rumbling & smoking with volcanic...

...His performances went for hours,
even when people drifted off,
he’d kept playing in the tavern
regardless of what others thought.

He would wind down like some old clock,
sometime playing straight through the night,
then just stand up and wander off,
all saw that his mind wasn’t right.

This made him quite...

CHRISTMAS      MIRACLE



Tinsel and glittering childen’s lights mean nothing 
To the aged in shop doorways, hungry and sleeping.
Churches filled with strong believers, with smiles
For fellow worshippers, mean nothing, when for miles
Your world is a pushed shop-trolley filled with rags 
And you...

Spring sunshine as winter has now past
That tempestuous wild weather did not last

Pollen-covered daffodils do permeate the air with their fresh scent
What will the pious sacrifice for lent

The easter hunt did unanimously excite
A fine lamb roast with heartfelt the family they did invite

Rabbits were seen...

Preparations for 'Luau' (LOU-ow) or a Hawaiian Party-like event, for a church Luau, would be a 'Ho'ike' (hoe-'E-kay). The hunters will tie the hind legs of whatever animal will go into an 'i'mu' (E'-moo), which is a dugout hole in the dirt ground, and small...
