Analysis of Faith booklet offered…when time is right.



Third time encounter
Here at this Tim Horton’s
Canadian venue for coffees.
Conversation. Newspaper.
Last time got your name.
Peter. Mine’s Doug.
Talked weather, local hockey
Excited kids on school break.
New Council ordinance
For lower speed rates
On all roads. YUK.
Resuming now as if
No gap, comfortable, casual.
You know that I
Often play/work with Tablet
Poetry, inspiration comments.
Well, here’s  booklet for you.
Take it, read it whenever.
No, there is not a push
Here for church membership someplace.
I don’t even attend any place.
Behind bricks and mortar.
“Doing my duty.”
Hah duty, what a sad motivator.
I just love Jesus.
Make contact with Him often.
His hand accepts the offer awkwardly.
Flips coupla pages.
Smiling.
He’s gonna read it!
