My Poetry Is More Popular Than My Short Stories. Poem by Roxanne Dubarry

Just because my poetry is more popular than my short stories,
does not mean I plan to abandon them.
I will continue composing short stories,
because I find they are benefical to me.

The LORD has given me, and others, this
gift to share with the rest of the world.
While the flags of freedom of expression,
still raise their banners high.
In God's awesome sky.

Need I wonder why, even fanasty based
stories are unpopular? Whenever a
harder to understand Bibical
theme is used by me.
Will only serve to inspire,
instead of discourging me.

My flights of fanasty were more
popular when they were less
violent. But my audience,
can I really blame them?

I praise the LORD for all of
the ideas he has bestowed upon me.
He will help me use my over active
imagination constructively; instead
of destructively!

Once I was lost, but now I can see?
If I did not write them, would I even
bother to read my most current short stories?
I am grateful my readers still appreciate
my poetry. I am richly blessed indeed.

Sometimes I write for an audience of
only one. Jesus Christ, God's only
begotten Son. There really is
nothing new under God's sun!
