(God’s Sonnet by Timothy J. Verret; “it’s how I cope to hope in Impressing only God today by Love that don’t digress” [“impress”ed by Philippians 2:3])

You seek to Impress them with Who You Are.

You flail weak arms to get their attention.

“I Am Here, Superior! Please Memoir

Me!” Bless YOUR heart. you need the declension.

I impress them all to feel I belong,

that I’m somebody, that I’m not “mistake.”

The “wrong” of this is that I’m “right” prolong

for suffering. i’ve always been daybreak.

“Don’t try to impress others. Be humble.”

we get elevated to High when low.

Jesus is Lord, yet He had to crumble

as a cookie criminal for Love’s Dough.

we Love God, God Loves us, Love don’t digress.

we are Enough. we don’t have to Impress.
