Dr John Celes Poems

virtues, a battered sack of seeds
strewn by the wind
grow into myriad useful plants
...

let mind and heart of man
control the body parts
not vice-versa
...

if abortion be birth-control
more babies will be killed
than are born
...

faithful sex
and self-control
are the best form of birth-control
...

the kingdom of heaven
is like the vineyard owner
who pays promised wages
...

the Ark of the Covenant
should be placed in the tent
meant for it
...

reconcile with God
obey His tenets all
obtain His mercy and life
...

God cleanses the world
in His own strange ways
man never can understand
...

when parents can’t safeguard
their children young
who should tend to them in senescence?
...

sanctity is a divine clarion call
to every soul
to decide sometime
...
