REPENTANCE (Etheree)

Pray
Kneel down
Ask His help
Repent and cry
Your guilt will  stay there
Like knocking on your door
You will not feel calm,  no peace,
No joy at all, only sorrow
For the faults made, sins that you have done
His forgiveness is the only cure now!

Author's Note

Etheree

The poetry form, Etheree, consists of 10 lines of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 syllables. Etheree can also be reversed and written 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Get creative and write an Etheree with more than one verse, but follow suit with an inverted syllable count.

Reversed Etheree: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Double Etheree: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 9, 8, 7, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

...Triple Etheree, Quadruple Etheree, and so on!

Cool! I think I just might try that. I loved your Etheree, by the way. Happy Easter. Maana tha!

Thanks, Eddie. What does "Maana tha" means?

[Eddie Davis]

Whoops! It should have been Marana tha or Maranatha -- my mistake, but I was typing it in a hurry as I was about to leave for the day. 'Maranatha' means "Our Lord has come' in Aramaic, which was the language of Jesus (along with Greek). It was used as a 'code word' in the early church among Christians, especially on Easter morning, to celebrate the Resurrection.

Wow! Thanks for the trivia, Eddie.
