A poem a day for ten-plus years
So naturally, there’d be
Repeated subjects cropping up,
Since they all come from me.
Of course, some themes require
Ruminations and returns,
Resulting in new verses
Dealing with the same concerns.
Yet at times when I’m done typing
A new entry from my book,
My computer lets me know that
I should take a second look
Since a poem is in existence
With the title I just chose,
So I either must rename it
Or delete it, I suppose.
If that happens, I’ll retitle
For it’s never to the letter
But I end up disappointed
If my former poem is better!

Yes as inspired by great poet Brian Johnston, I retitle this, ''God's kind of poetry.''
Glorify the Great
Architect
Awesome artist of nature
Author of the universe,
Glorify God
for beauty infinite,
For the markings bedecked
for the striped and the spotted,
The mottled and the dotted
for the gold bedecked
for the glint 'n' glitter bespangled
For the fawns speckled
And other animals dappled.
The cobras bespectacled!
Variety in flora and fauna.
His creation's so beauteous
whether it hath markings
or be it plain,
it's all simply wondrous.
But for God's sake, let that fur
be left solely on its owner
for poachers don't own it
nor do they the python's skin.
So hunters and poachers beware
Unless nobody does care
any longer
if beauty be extinct!
Opt for other options
for your pillowcasing eiderdowns
Don't strip the feathered fauna
of their fine downy gowns!
Be ye cautious about culling or killing
Let no blood be rapaciously spilling
So forever humanbeings may admire
God's stippled effects on animals
And His ripple effect on river canals!
