draft of a new poem for the Lord composed in-post

[Poetic Peter]

This happened just tonight. It is but a first draft, perhaps it is the last:

______________


I met a man
Outside K-Mart.

I told him in few words
Of God. And Jesus:
How He'd save him.

The man looked down
Then up, dumbfounded.
Then he turned and walked away.

~

I met a man
Outside K-Mart.
He now has gone
Back home to pray.

We know he's safe now,
And well-stocked,
With soul, of which,
before, he had not.


I met a man
Outside K-Mart.
God saved him from a sentence
Of everlasting death to come
For those without repentance.

God has taught me to convert
The K-Mart man from shirts, to shirk
The shallow and the commercial ways,
Of seekers of false truths today.

I met a man
Outside K-Mart. Oh,
God, I think and hope I helped
him shop, and buy The Way....

humbly yours in Christ,

Quite brilliant, but an outstanding final verse! It brought it all together perfectly.
