Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is religion.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A poem thanking the Lord for continued mercy:
The Lord has been merciful to me.
For I have sinned all
the sins of this place
That preys on
weakness and traffics in sin,
And He has not turned
away from me.
For I have sinned all
the sins of this place,
And sinned and
repented and sinned again,
And He has not turned
away from me,
Nor blinded my eyes,
nor hardened my heart.
And sinned and
repented and sinned again,
And He has remained
even here, in this place,
Nor blinded my eyes,
nor hardened my heart,
Nor left me alone.
Praise the Lord!
And He has remained
even here, in this place,
That preys on
weakness and traffics in sin,
Nor left me alone.
Praise the Lord!
The Lord has been
merciful to me.
