Best Parish Poems
Pointe Coupee ParishThe last living light
Twinkles in his dead eyes
Alive a moment ago but now gone
Someone should shut them
A stare so lonely
Into a place that only he knew
He’s lying there on the floor
Bleeding hard from the head
Police don’t even bother
Just pay him his respects
It’s cold and...

The ParishWhen the time comes we shall all gather,
People of all walks and talks together,
In front of the parish for the Holy Communion,
It is here that we meet our companion,
In holy matrimony we unite before the father,
But this is no ordinary...

Into a Parish PriestInto a Parish Priest.
Horn has always worked the hardest
At trying to become an blowhard artist
And a great poet he soon became
To find all of his fortune and fame.
God as great as He always has been,
Wasn't sure where he should begin
Regarding making Horn more poetic
Whose appeal...

Presented Polite Priest To Our Parish
There are many things that poems can contain;
Fragrant flowers which will flow in a spring rain;
Sky full of clouds and mountain top with snow,
While across some wide sea wind would blow.
Heard a polite priest who we love in our parish;
Could...

St Mary and St Eanswythe 11th Century, Parish ChurchBeside remembrance road,
Up rugged steps,
A little further on,
A gate,
And through,
Along a flagstone path,
Lined by sturdy trees,
Now in their Autumn shades,
And roundabout,
Gravestones, with Epitaphs,
Some hard to see,
Of past loving thoughts,
For those through time,
That left this world behind,
Gold heaped beds, crisp to foot,
Lead on,...

But Saint Padarn's church
Would never besmirch
Recitation of old fairy tails...

Parish Cherish and Sermons Nightmarishwill always cherish
is best priest in our parish
sermons nightmarish
about priest wonder
the spell he has us under
collected plunder
priest a rising star
exceeds all others by far

while wild priest we withstood
was up to no good
we called our priest jane

To Parish With It's InfancyTrees sway ever so lightly in the breeze.
Clear streams flow along the earth nearby.
Birds sing natures melody happily.
Wildflowers paint the meadow in colors.
A gravel driveway completing the scene.
As I, afraid to touch anything,
for it may dissapear,
As I may awake from this dream,
Having drifted from...

To ParishTo parish would be to gain-
Freedom. Freedom
From that which haunts me.
Not to perish in a physical sense,
No-
That would be pointless.
I must perish mentally.
Kill that which envelops my
Being. Thoughts
Of a bright future,
A better tomorrow,
A new life....

I Say Leave the Worldly Things To ParishWe are but a mere blinking of an eye of eternity
Our souls here only seconds in the abyss of time
Than like that we are over, done, complete
Pehaps it's not the quantity of life we should we worry with
But the quality instead
Did we use our time...

Trump Wish Would ParishTrump Wish Would Parish
Hillary we love and still do cherish,
While we wish Trump would parish;
On Christmas Eve,
Episcopal Church leave;
All of us he does like to embarrish.
Jim Horn
He was actually at an Episcopal Church.
Seems like when Trump leaves,
He had stolen all of the sheaves....

Avoyelles LifeIn a small town, in the middle of the state
Lie many questions; still unanswered to date
Injustice is done without the bat of an eye
It's all about who you know, my oh my
Crying for help, you don't stand a chance
While those in control laugh and...

ForgiveHow could you be so unforgiving,
After the reasons she had given:
For all her blushes, her clear tremor?
Your pardon, now would be her armor...
She would want to leave and still live
So, the Hot Words you have for her sieve;
I had heard it said "To err...
