Vow-less
Ecclesiastes 5:5
5 It is better for you not to vow
than to vow and not pay it.
Vow-less
A promise made to be broken ... how much is commitment worth?
Are vows made as a token of sincerity ... or from an empty purse?
I’ll do this, that and the other ... but my memory will fade tomorrow.
Give me just a day or two ... and it will be totally gone.
Reminder glimpses will bother ... just a little while in sorrow
as my conscience shows me the fool ... by the things I left undone.
I am used to be chided ... it took over my new nature.
I am now again becoming ... the inner man I never left.
A perfect wall called “white” ... no blemish in this creature.
Now “grace” is condoning ... and I am not bereft.
