Best Priest Poems

Oh, Those New Years Resolutions!

As If perfection, I could ever in a year achieve!

how I wish I’d been 
a man, a dog, or a priest 
being held from sin
by a roman collar or leash

how I wish my acts 
were good and virtuous deeds 
narrowing the path 
for saintly men and their beasts...

Live your life so that the priest won't get bored when he confesses you,  
To have legends and songs of stars to listen to,  
Stories in which each day is an adventure, every night a mystery,  
And your soul, a canvas on...

     lying next to me.
Magical orbs are elements of love and the essence of paradise.
     I was charmed by your smile and your gentle...

Whoever dwells now in that nest?
Nightingales?
Or the priest who wants to rest?

Wherever is my cousin, the pest?
With Ted?
Or the priest who wants to rest?

This morning a minor sin I confessed.

Look! He is getting undressed!
Who?
The priest who wants to...

The priest who wants to rest
went fishing with his dear cousin Nora
A very nice lady, ginger and intrepid.
Today she adopted a Turkish Angora

The priest who wants to rest
took a shower early which he enjoyed
The water he truly liked, it was tepid;
and he sang an ode...

The Priest with Spirited Eyes


Heart sees tender giving in those spirited eyes,-
  Shared love given to those with great need!
   Comforting hearts that hurt but don't bleed,
 With love spent in helping as precious time flies

The Bad Priest
In Lyons (I think it was Easter, 1438),
I was a priest and somehow can recall
the dim church, the heavy clouds of frankincense

Down on your knees for forgiveness, now pray,
Confess your misdoings, repent of your sins,
But lack of due reverence caused the plight that you’re in.

Unable to stand in the light...

Into 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...

It is no small feat to attempt to speak 
of the dying of our Lord
who sacrificed Himself for us 
by a fate far worse than fire or by sword.  
For one as whom not qualified 
to write of this great deed,
the Son of God...
