Ash Wednesday

Original Religious Poetry

Dear Father God

Rub your ashes on my forehead in a sign of a cross

To remind me of your Son Jesus Christ

As I repent of all the sins I have commited

I continue this period of spiritual discipline

Clean my thoughts and make me an Arch Angel

Where I promise to always push to hell all demons and lost ghosts

In the Name Of Your Son Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit

I kneel in front of You and Your Son

Amen

A religious poem very unique I must say. It is very well wrote you manage to capture what humanity should pray for . I admire you for most writers might not post a religious piece as this which tells me you are brave . This poem is a lot in a few words as a message to the rest of us perhaps do the same and for someone so young ready to take this vow you write of is a true testament not only to your writing but you as a person I hope you get what you ask for dear one and keep writing dear for people need to see this type of writing in this day and age.

This reminds me of when I went to church with my Dad. We went to All Saints Episcopal. You would go to the front of the church and they would take ash on their thumb and make the sign of the cross on your forehead.

And I always wondered what symbology that represented. I finally ascertained it to mean, we were born from ash, and to ash we shall return.

Thank You dw for your valuable review and you are right about your interpretation I reread about Adam And Eve Today and what you are saying makes sense.

[dw817]

Yes. But still today - I am wondering if the interpretation is for us to believe we only each have one rib as God borrowed one from man and gave it to woman. Just an observation. :)

[Christopher Casper]

This is a powerful prayer full of conviction. It is a simple and honest write. Thank you for sharing.

Thank You for your valuable review it is said that Adam is Michael The Arch Angel that decided to protect Eve into human form because God had told him so.

[Confuser]

It is a beautiful prayer - I loved every word - it is as lovely as the drawing above it - I especially like the part: clean my thoughts and make me an Arch Angel. Great writing. Thank you. Dale
