Waiting
Religious Poetry. Please don't keep Him waiting..
Rated:

Avg Rating: (11)
Are you strong in your daily walk?
Do you spend time with Him and talk?
Do you remember to always pray?
He is waiting, so don’t delay.

Is your love for your fellow man
Strong and sincere as was His plan?
Are we helping those gone astray?
He is waiting, so don’t delay.

Have you given your life to Him?
If you haven’t, your future’s grim.
There is no time better than today.
He is waiting, so don’t delay.


Form: Kyrielle
A Kyrielle is a French form of rhyming poetry written in quatrains (a stanza consisting of 4 lines),
and each quatrain contains a repeating line or phrase as a refrain (usually appearing as the last
line of each stanza). Each line within the poem consists of only eight syllables. There is no limit
to the amount of stanzas a Kyrielle may have, but three is considered the accepted minimum.

Some popular rhyming schemes for a Kyrielle are: aabB, ccbB, ddbB, with B being the repeated
line, or abaB, cbcB, dbdB.

Mixing up the rhyme scheme is possible for an unusual pattern of: axaZ, bxbZ, cxcZ, dxdZ, etc.
with Z being the repeated line.

The rhyme pattern is completely up to the poet.
