Hello Pretty Pets, welcome to the “Pretty Petty’s Poem of the Week” issue. This will be a weekly issue. We are Amanda D. Petty and Eric Brown, and we’re poets. This will show off our diversion of our poetry. This is a part of “Pretty Petty Poetry”. If you want more information, go to: www.prettypettypoetry.blogspot.com.
This weekend is Easter. This is a sacred holiday. We remember what Christ did for us, the everyday human beings. He, Jesus Christ, hung on a cross for three days, and on the third day, He was resurrected. He did this because He loves us. In this poem, you’ll see the unconditional love.
Free Me, Christ
By-Amanda D. Petty
Free me, Christ, from this pain.
Give me Thy strength to bare it.
Arriving, knocking, come rain.
Bequeath me, oh Lord, please, sit.
A pond, You cry for me.
Free me, Christ, from my sorrows.
Grant me power to overcome.
I say, “Look forward to tomorrow.”
Please, succor me to overcome.
A stream, You cry for me.
Free me, Christ, from my fears.
Untrusting myself, I do.
Coming a marathon of tears.
I cry, “Lord, I need You.”
A lake, You cry for me.
Free me, Christ, from my sins.
Temptations at my hand.
Obeying Thee now from The Inn.
Help me to understand.
A river, You cry for me.
Free me, Christ.
More Than Poetry: We take “Pretty Petty Poetry” very, very seriously. Some people think poetry is very “old fashioned”, boring, and not that interesting. We can understand. To us, poetry is the true heart of a person. Amanda describes it as: lyrics without any music.
