The Ghoulish Affair
Gamblers scheme the ghoulish affair,
Cover bases,
Parlay the pair.

A sonnet with the rhyming scheme of ABAB BCBC CDCD EE. Iambic pentameter. Jesus is the Paragon of Sweetness. None is sweeter. more gentle. more kind.
Jesus nurses the hurting as a friend,
Jesus calms in the deep, as we are frail.
Be as the children, Jesus does commend.
Sit upon his lap, share every detail.
Pit of the Plum –
small and round.
Stone of Spite –
is cursed bound.
God’s forgiveness is like a blossom,
Its beauty bright; its fragrance awesome.
For Mercy’s glory is beyond compare,
And to the cross, it takes us there.
