You cup my face, and ease my mind
You sway my hips and make me rhyme
You contradict my silent death
And dissolve my selfish pride
~There's a pandemic sin the only medical cure is Grace Repentance and Forgiveness~

Break this
alabaster flask of mine.
Exude
The spikenard of repentance
anoint HIM
who savors the fragrance.
Precious.
Drops falling.
The tears of gods
Forgotten or forsaken
Tapping at windows
Begging for repentance
Those
Cruelly recalcitrant
To their design.
Repentance
Haiku

Judgment scales won't weigh
Even a good heart's intent
But how the tree fell
innocent cents are found in the essence of patience
good riddance of stolen cents is the essence of repentance
the essence of repentance is to sow in the soul penance
For I, who have brought winter on our world,
Whose fists in bloods of innocents have curled,
Do not propose to live but for the day
That something of my past, I wash away.
Repentance is of change in behaviour.
Unbelievers with no misbehaviour,
Do they so need to repent?
Yet believers do lament...
They are so far from Jesus- the saviour.
O God, forgive us,
and accept our repentance,
have mercy on us,
for You are the Forgiving,
Merciful, and Acceptor!
Please, note that Acceptor means The Accepter of Repentance.
It's a beggar's repentance...
Two swans dance
between the mist and
the stars.
A sapphire oblivion
rages from the moon.
...with a pocket
full of apologies.
Preaching repentance in his flowing robes
Abstinence from that which stains the soul
The ascetic slumped forward, face downcast
Neglecting his body, he'd breathed his last
"Blessed joyous birthday!"
Greetings wrapped with God's great love
Wondrous precious gifts*
*Romans 11:29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

Even if with his last breath a man truly repents, the gates of heaven will open for him wide!

* Second Monoku of the trilogy!
There once was a word who tried to belong,
but all of his contexts seemed to be wrong.
He stole a thesaurus and sought out repentance;
but now he's in jail with an unfinished sentence.
Zebra stripes
Red and whites
feather light as lightning strikes
leather tight and coiled spikes
sharing thy sentence
feigning thy repentance
reaping scarlet tomorrows
sleeping varlet sorrows
Form:
The sins of the father
the sins of the son
Repentance left vacant
each sorrow rerun
An age of despondence
an age of denial
The past beyond hope
—the future beguiled
(Dreamsleep: February, 2023)
Tender petals of youth wither and fade
Stinging the soul with regret
Sharp penance of years
A yearning too deep for tears
A token of repentance
Times short pleasure to take
Youthful mirth vanishes away
Your Cart
Brothers, hear me don't judge me.
For repentance in my heart--
Retrieve the rocks you hurled so free.
With love fill the empty cart.

They were lost
out of the ordinary
a time within
a newer journey begins
senseless thoughts
a count for the days
amazed, in a daze
confusion, alone
a reality, surreal
heart-broken
a time spent
repentance.
The bloom starts no repentance,
it is not afraid of the slip just yet.
each gentle wind is a sigh from the sky.
be scented now, then learn to die.
It is the fleeting we become.
in how we glow before we've gone.
For those who risk,
all honor and all glory,
but for those who don't risk
only the existential void...
Repentance is a remarkable feat,
makes forgiveness possible...
But for those who insist on mistakes,
all shame and reproach...
The words of her song
remained on his lips
duties of the heart with
which he'd not come to grips
The pain that he felt
as they tormented his soul
spurred him on to repentance
renewal of vows ~ marriage whole
An angel
Fell down
From hell
Today
His body unburned
With so much to say
He said the war was too much
And he wanted to try his luck
As a human and ask
For repentance
Get closer
To heaven
To pay his penance
The honorable way
below the heathen
heart beats flows tears repentance
hands lifted raised high
down on bended knees
turns around going other way
graced in mercies fate

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2024©
For years I lived in solitude
Wishing I had you to hold
Trying to tame the attitude
That made you stiff and cold
I'm walking bare on bended knees
Braving the flies and all the bees
Throwing lashes on fresh scars
Hoping to end our wars
