Note this! - a very precious bard he is,
Known by the pen name “Sinned” Dennis;-
‘Gainst modesty he never ever sinned,
Thus was endowed with Spirit, Pneuma, Wind!

So Modest, and so unobtrusively
He writes and posts his lovely poetry,
Is independent of excessive praise,
But leaves it to the Lord to have His ways.

And Sin,- he hardly ever did commit,
Lo! Sin on him just would not cling and sit.
He dedicates his work in praise of God,
And God does count the comment numbers not.

Nor does considers cliques that rove and roam
(We know the Lord is everywhere at home)
And for the Master’s greater glory t’ is
That “Sinned” does write, -this fortunate “Sinned” Dennis.

Far from the gracious Lord is cliquishness;
Who loves to see His bards autonomous,
At times beyond a poet sis or brother,
Who boost, acclaim, support alone each other.

Halt cliquishness, stop! halt! - lest it will spread
And spoil the rising dough for nurturing bread
Behold -the daily bread of poet -bard,
Who will be left with only rancid lard!

O’er shadowed by the busy site Elite
Sinned moves with faith, - we know from Holy Writ
That manifest will turn things on “that” day
When more than pious folks and poets pray..

Delivered from this comment counting he
From tedium and tribulation free
Can well devote his poems’ noble word
To praise, extol, to laud and thank the Lord!.

The races Winner is who writes for Him
Although the comments may be rare and slim
Dear Comment counters take ye heed- take heed!
T ‘is said the Lord does comments hardly read.:).

But Judge He is, in heaven and on earth
That knows a poem’s excellence and worth
Or lack of it, -High Justice’s Commissar
Does look to “Sin-ed” yes “Sinned” as loveliest star.!.

AD MAJOREM DEI GLORIA
For the Greater Glory of God!
