Please God Poem by Randy McClave

Please God



Please God, please bless my family
Because forgiving them sometimes, I just can't,
With a judgmental brother and a nosey sister
And of course, that know-it-all Aunt.
I try not to hate or to judge anyone
But, they do it unthinkingly all of the time,
Then they say that they are following in the steps of you!
But, isn't that a sin, and a lie, and also a blasphemous crime.
High up in the clouds the world seems so small
I noticed that from my small seat in the plane,
Maybe that is the perfect vision for us all to see
That only you God, can truly bless us and reign.
I pray that for my family that you would forgive them all
And then your love and charity they would finally know,
But, they seem to care and think only about themselves
So, peace upon them I beg that you would also bestow.
High up in the clouds in the plane we did sail
Closer to you and heaven we did fly,
I felt the warmth of the sun and so much nearer to you
I then pleaded that for my family, that them you would sanctify.
To bless anyone I have not the power or the gift
As my sins unto you in a prayer I will continuously confess,
All that I can do is to ask you for your compassion
And for my family, I pray for them for you to bless.
