"Amazing Grace"
Life was throwing rocks.
My bruises were getting sorer,
I reaped what l sow when l saw the wrath of Saul in my soul,
Dear God, being of the flesh is a humungus task, thus he went to hell and back for my sins l shall forever busk onto his merciful cloak.
I had to become a Postulant.
The devils set traps for me and my loved ones like he did with Job so my faith can be examined.... Well bad news for you lucifer l am not one to give up for l know that my redeemer lives!
I shall rise again and again until the heavens take me.
I shall speak of his existence and Miracles and no amount of pain can silence me for my God is powerful through Christ l am sancro-sanctified.
I am born,
Borne unto death.
Spewed forth on a wave,
Webbed feet touch a holy hand.
A postulant …

In 'Sound of Music', a time-honored film,
Maria, postulant from Abby near,
was hired, by a Captain widower,
as governess for seven children home.
The children then bereft and motherless
and governed by time-saving frenzied rules
which father, Georg von Trapp strictly enforced,
were placed into Maria's gentle hands;
Her service to the Lord made her a saint,
and with her gentleness, she shaped their lives.
Through love of music, led them with their songs
with joy for life that they had never known.
They fell in love with her, and soon her world
had opened up another way to serve.
In love and bonded with them and their dad,
she came to follow a new road in life.
As loving wife and mother, she gave self
upon another path of faithfulness.
She served the Lord and life, together with
the rescue of a family once lost.

They were God's people'
The most postulant among men
If you believe in Jesus
Then you will know
That they do carry sin
-----
Subjugated and infested
By the sin's of their time
They lurk in the shadow's
In the recesses'
Of the human mind
They some-how garnish
All the truth in salvation
To do dirty deed's
Using frustration
With death and emnity
Here come's their elation
-----
So, listen to this warning
Listen to it all
For the fallen Angel
Serves' as a recluse
For us all
For all whom shall fall
----
So, take my advice
And just stay away
Fore they will steal
All your spirit
On any given day'
