When the family stayed to long
It broke out into a brawl
Food was all over poor Saul
Who was trying to find his red thong...

Faith
fervent, bold
searching, hearing, obeying
Moses, David, Saul, Goliath
hardening, rebelling, questioning
lukewarm, haughty
Incredulity

thoughts words and deeds changed  
mad wisdom or wise madness ...
Saul into saint Paul

There once was a lizard named Rex(ie)
Whose head was always tilted and ready
Sitting next to the glass wall
Patiently waiting for Saul
To feed him tasty hornworm bread(ie).

turkety,  lurkety
Saul, king of Israel
green-eyed with envy shouts,
“I’ll cut your throat.”

groundless, irrational
obsessitivity.
David, the next king squeals,
“I cut your coat.”

Son of David have mercy on my soul
I was blinded by the evil like the known ancient Saul
And now all my enemies want to see me fall
But with your love and mercies you make my ways beautiful

Jesus Christ! Set me free
I am just a branch and you're the tree
It's my humble request only to u I plea
So I give myself away for me to worship thee...

The women danced singing:
 "Saul has killed his thousands
 and David his tens of thousands."
(1Samuel 18:7). 

Through envy and perhaps jealousy
Saul pursued David from that day onward;
Causing the Lord to be sorry that he made him 
(Saul) king.

In modern times just as in the old
A gifted or talented feat
Could cause eruption in the same way.
And men do not keep their word....

We all have to start somewhere.
Brick by brick, tooth and nail, you'll get there. 
You might not be a Saul, you might be that apple
So go on and drink from your motivational fountains
You might not build the Taj Mahal or paint the Sistine Chapel, 
but you'll move the molehills you've imagined are mountains.

It was my much despised dish
But I ate it with relish,
Because of a granted wish
To be served Mackerel Fish
And treated to a glimpsed quiche
But that was rather childish
To a friend acting British
All of a sudden snobbish
And I hated q wished fish
Like Devout Christians Hashish...

Then, I'd been the quite sheepish:
Unstable Saul Son of Kish
For accepting The Despised
After it was a bit spiced....

Joseph,a levite from Cyrprus,fair
Displayed his gifts with loving care;
A son of encouragment,he was called
This bold Barnbas of old.
The first advocate for Tarsus,Saul
With words he smoothed the path for Paul;
Then to Antiocn,post haste was sent,
To nuture young Christians he was lent;
A teacher,prophet of the Lord
With the apostles he spread the word,
Enduring dangers he fulfilled his call,
A man of principle...example to all....

Saul was dazed by his bloodlines.
Was his fervor wrong -
a disguise?

He blacklisted believers.
What was his motive?
Whence his steel?

God’s great Light transformed Saul’s mind.
What passion stirred Saul’s
blinded eyes?

He came to a place called Choice.
Is this Jesus right?
Is He real?

Praise God for His faithful ones.
Who blazed your thinking
past the lies?

Thank God for servant voices.
Who blessed your path with
godly zeal?...

I have met the craziest mad hatter of all.
Is he mad? Is he bad? Is he goofy? Is he tall.
He is a shrimp with bad teeth, and he is small.
Does he do weird things? Is he a bell of the crazy bird ball?

This hater is Celtic, mystical, and was born in a caul.
He is a distant cousin of the Biblical characters Saul and Paul.
He sounds normal said the other. Will he be around in the fall?
He is here now, but invisible, said my imaginative cousin, Mal....

Truth has become socially malleable,
personally customized and saleable.

Ruled Politically incorrect,
by the self appointed elect.

We’ve hit that slippery slope running,
led by diabolical cunning.

We're on that horse and galloping like Saul,
persecuting salvation...right St Paul?

The sin is the same as it used to be,
just a different apple tree.

Work out your salvation in fear and trembling,
for Truth and lies are conveniently blending....

When life will stop being kind
what will be there to leave behind?
I hope to leave behind my pieces
so my saul rise in peace
lovers say Rest In peace
A life celebrated
My works appreciated.
when Im gone
Hurts torn
My memories gone
in my works Remember me 
in my words Remember me
in mind Have me
you are kind show me.
keep me close to heart
should I go first
I would have done the same
If to me first it came.
My soul will leave
But let my works live....

there is a fellow named saul
who loves to play basketball
can run shoot and pass
always scores so fast
and only stands three foot tall

saul lives in the tallest tree
high as a person can be
not afraid of height
sees the stars at night
a life so happy and free

saul loves a fancy lassie
beautiful long and classy
no matter to them
she stands six foot ten
they see eye to eye you see
