An Expressive’s Expressive Poem

Standard

I’m an EXPRESSIVE.

Some might say I’m word obsessive.

In other words, I MUST share,

Whether or whether NOT others care.

.

If you are ALSO an expressive and you share a lot,

Don’t be offended if we (me/us) don’t read or listen to all, because time we AIN’T got. 

We are not being rude, not being crude.

It’s just I myself (we expressives) have to EXUDE…

.

An expressive cannot be upended.

So we ALSO have to NOT be offended.

And know “it’s life” if you simply hit delete.

My time and your time cannot compete.

.

‘God made me this way’,

That is all I can say.

Holy Spirit, help my words, I ask you to help regulate.

My life to You, Lord, I must relegate.

An expressive must listen too.

And hold our tongues from saying: “you know what you should do?!”

An expressive excessive should not be advice possessive,

and especially to the Lord, be less dominant, more recessive.

.

And please know that even though I often write like life is all grand,

There are many times, like you, when the devil severely sifts me like sand.

But I really try not to throw about my own mud.

I don’t really want it to fall on your life like a thud.

.

So whatever is going on in your day,

Know it’s going to be ok.

Let us live well humbly and like God, give of our lives.

And worship, love and fear God, witness without compromise. 

.

So let me wrap up this word dump.

Give advice gently or you can hear with a THUMP.

God made each of us UNIQUE.

Our life is NOT bleak. 

.

I thank you for this time and space (and grace) 

To share my own (sometimes rhyming) word chase pace.

So in life, fill in your own blank word spaces,

Fill in your own dreams, desires, and places.

.

Thank the Lord, give a shout. 

Praise God and LOVE HIM, LOVE OTHERS, that is what life is all about.

.

And let God have the last word.

The Word, HIS WORD, is what we best pray to be heard.

.

Amen
