Beneath translucent stars
The holy spirit of Jesus
Carved this air
That we breathe,
As He walked
Among the Philistines

The Philistines wanted the source of Samson's power
Delilah tried,nagged and then to her love,lied
In weakness,this Judge was soon to cower-
Samson' strength was never self-reliant,
The Spirit of the Lord had made him a giant

Narrative
Goliath*, mighty giant
Against young David he was defiant
With God’s strength triumphantly prevailing
Goliath, smitten by David; forever in defeat, ailing.
*1Samuel 17:4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

THE AFFAIR OF DELILAH’S BARBER
Delilah’s decadence was hard to bare.
Barbarous Philistines, they’d cut his hair.
His new growth wrought with chillers.
They had chained him to pillars.
Samson fell house in an awful affair.

Limerick
Samson slew a thousand men with the jawbone of an ass!
The Lord said, "You done good, boy! You've got a lot of brass!"
"Thank you, Lord!", as he surveyed the carnage he did that day.
"I must say, I sure made donkeys out of them Philistines today!"

It’s true, she didn’t ask me to do it.
But I could tell the first time we had dinner together,
When she mentioned the appointment with her stylist,
That she’d not be displeased if I made an appointment of my own.
I now look back and see that as a turning point in my life
No less disastrous than the one that reduced
That other slayer of Philistines to similar misfortune.
But I’ll rattle these temple pillars yet.
Just give me time.
