Psa 23:1¶
[[A Psalm of David.]] The LORD [is] my shepherd; I shall not want.
Psa 23:2
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
The prior two verses are is King Davids statement. This is what King David says after he is in green pastures and beside still waters:
1. He restoreth my soul
2. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
3. I will fear no evil
4. in the presence of mine enemies
His soul needs restoring, he walks through and around death, He is tempted to be afraid and he is still in the presence of his enemies.
This haiku helps me understand the 23 rd Pslam and life:
Restful green pastures,
I'm lead beside still waters,
These bugs break my peace.

Exd 20:5

And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandment.

Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
Mat 13:20
But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;
Mat 13:21
Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.
Mat 13:22
He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.
Mat 13:23
But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth [it]; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Haiku:
Some fly on the wind,
some grow when burned, few live
but all seeds are loved

Isa 61:3
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
haiku:
Must be losing weight,
This dark garment does not fit,
Garment of praise does.

I wonder, Is this scriptural?
Sin you are now dead I see,
Covet you have no draw on me,
Cause won't miss my time on the Tee,
Daily with Jesus fore eternity.

Cause won't miss my time on the Tee,

Jeremiah 17 verse 5 Thus says the LORD: "Cursed [is] the man who trusts in man And makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the LORD.
Jer 17:6 For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, And shall not see when good comes, But shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, [In] a salt land [which is] not inhabited.
Jer 17:7 "Blessed [is] the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD.
Jer 17:8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear [fn] when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.
I will trust upon the Lord,
The river shall meet my roots,
In years of drought, the heats ignored,
My fruit will yield new shoots.
Most of the time he was strong,
Most of the time he thought on what he wanted,
So at times his life was dry,
Living in a wilderness of non friends,
He was hopeful he would see pleasant times.
Nope.

Gods glory seems so hidden,

I wonder how my living will turn out
Our Father sure gives us a joyous end
but selfish ones live curse that God does send
I pray I'll wake like you Lord dispel doubt
And train me in your way your truth and walk
Oh pour the gift tenacity on me
And bless me in The Christs community
So I can be your hands and not all talk
I think I know you only just a bit
My wondrous God you are still to unknown
And magnify your name to help us quit
The worship of false gods with hearts of stone
Oh dwell inside our hearts Gods holy Son
The King and the High priest, your love has won
Our Father sure gives us a joyous end
but selfish ones live curse that God does send
I pray I'll wake like you Lord dispel doubt
And train me in your way your truth and walk
Oh pour the gift tenacity on me
And bless me in The Christs community
So I can be your hands and not all talk
I think I know you only just a bit
My wondrous God you are still to unknown
And magnify your name to help us quit
The worship of false gods with hearts of stone
Oh dwell inside our hearts Gods holy Son
The King and the High priest, your love has won

This is a poem is in a style I made up I call Free Hymm. The first four lines in a hymm style. The next 5 lines are in free style, and this free style part has a one or two word ending.
Because you love me Father God,
I have hope this day,
Because you love me Father God,
no longer can I stray.
No longer am I a loser in the after life.
No longer do I cry bound by chains and anchors.
No longer do I serve a false King.
No longer do I serve a false High Priest
No longer for I put my life in Jesus Anointed.
Because.
