Through the gates of Absalom,
steed and gate did ride,
charging fast and furious
o'er centuries gone by;
peace did shout in vain,
the Lidless Prophets...
must come again,
nigh is the evening sky
but full of hope
The ramparts held fast, ballast and beam,
cannon-fire bombasting flesh and bone,
groans of death ---
such dreary breath!
of decay centuries old
The Rose of all that is Earth,
her petals unsheathed,
torn for time ---
tear and antiquity ---
her red sheen lilts in the new day sun,
begging for Love, she asks:
Shall they come?

There was a great king,
whom did sin and fall.
David. When from his balcony,
Bathsheba he saw.
In his heart... he sinned as
lust was conceived.
A plan of muder in his heart
was soon received.
This sin led to another
and had soon willed.
To have Bathsheba's
husband to be killed.
The consequences of his sin
was later explained.
His first born died, and his
son Absalom was slain.
Once his sin was conceived,
it brought lust and soon death.
Sin is always this way--
until you take your last breath.
Think of the consequences...
and flee tempation FAST.
Enjoy a victory and blessings
from God that will last!
