The ability to see the ridiculous is a blast
It provides you with the ability to laugh
Even when clouds of doubt fill the skies
Or when disturbances might arise
You’ll be favored in God’s eyes
For the Master smiled and laughed in his pain
Even on the way to Gethsemane
Betray me on the morrow
Forsake me with the dawn
Kiss me so they know me
Count the silver coin
Forsake me when the cock crows
Betray me with the dawn
Just remember what I told you
I am my Father’s son

Thanks for sharing WW ~ Lest I forget Gethsemene ~ Lest I forget thine agony ~ Lest I forget thy love to me ~ Lead me to Calvary ~ AMEN ~ BRIAN
HI LYSI ~ LEST is old English meaning "To avoid the risk of .......... !" (Check it on GOOGLE. It is the chorus of a Hymn ~ which begins "King of my Life I Crown Thee now ................. !" Thanks for commenting but I did check it before I posted ~ OK. I always enjoy (spiritually) being led to Calvary. You can check the hymn on YOU TUBE to see how it is pronounced. It could be simply translated as UNLESS or IN CASE ~ OK ~ BRIAN
So this ' LEST is like 'Coking & Food'
in your personal profile?! OK- Thanks for Caring Father's Son!
Thanks LYSI ~ You say color and I say colour ~ you say trunk and I say bonnet ~ your say faucet and I say tap ~ lets call the whole thing off. Spelling is very fluid in these days of texting etc hence DRINKA PINTA MILKA DAY in the adverts. Deliberate "misspelling" in poetry. We went to the CAFF and had a LAFF ~ I felt NAFF ~ so i went home and had a BAFF etc etc. COKING by the way is the habit of always having a COKE with your meal ~ touchee ! The really nice thihg LYSI is the we both care about POETRY and all our Fellow Poets on MPS ~ Yours BRIAN
Great write
thank you Tony
