Poem for 22nd Sunday after Pentecost Luke 18:1-8

Why does this happen to me

I tell my children what I want
And they don’t listen
Last week I told them
Keep their room clean
And now look
I told them once
Once

To enter into a relationship
Is more than once
Is more than telling
More than holy brevity
It is the now
The then
The when
The ongoing chatter
Rather than the occasional thought

Pray constantly Christ says
Live in a relationship
Not always holy
Except it be blessed

By God
