Pool comp

Last night was the pool comp, I don\'t play as a rule: it\'s a social night for me, and, I don\'t care if I look like a fool.

 

I thought it wise to catch the train *in case I sink a few! 

Now as I walked from the station I met someone I never knew...

 

Standing near the stairs, handing out flyers, was a simple young man, wearing a smile: he said,

\"Jesus loves you.\"

 I said,

 \"I know\"

  Well, his face lights up!

 And quick as a flash, said, \"God bless you.\"

I said,

\"Thank you\"

 And that was that, off to the pub to shoot the crap!

Won my first game (and with it a schooner), had a few more (should have left sooner)

Anyway it was a good night, but the blessing on the step was my highlight...

 

\"And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.\"

 

His eyes were soft;

I could read his face: 

The simpleton:

Full of love, and grace.

 

Six words, without delay: on the night; into the day...

 

The less is blessed by the greater: the greater is not on display. 

Entertaining angels?

I couldn\'t say.
