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.
Who is this mighty King of Kings,
Who has come in flesh like me and you?
Deliver, Sanctify, Redeem and Complete.
No one in this world is so kind and true.
