Sometimes I Err Poem by John Sensele

Sometimes, I err like a human and purr like a cat
Sometimes, I lose my cool and act like a bull
Sometimes, I stray like a lost sheep and fall flat
On my face but God makes me a jewel.

Sometimes, I give vent to wrath and step on folks' toes
Sometimes, I shake faith and scare a wraith
Sometimes, I go blank and settle scores
But God gives me breath.

Sometimes, I brush folks the wrong way
Sometimes, I fly like a butterfly and cry
Sometimes, I kneel down and pray
All the time God never says goodbye.

Sometimes, I fail like a groggy boxer and asks her
Sometimes to leave alone like an uncloned clone
Sometimes, I eat huge morsels and feel better
All the time God never let me walk alone.
