Humble like a Sunday afternoon,
Smiling while the hours bloom;
Sweetie, you are lovely indeed,
A creation of woman, God made complete.
Righteous once you have awaken,
Testimony with trouble you’ve undertaken…
To witness you pray yourself asleep
Is a blessing beyond any other feat…
It’s-
The Christian in you
That makes you so sexy,
Every time I am with you
I praise God for He’s blessed me.
The Christian in you.

hello lamar
and welcome to neopoet
this is a really lovely write. it has great rhythm and rhyme, and a gentleness about it that fits the theme
i have one suggestion – just in my opinion. I like to avoid the word ‘like’ when connecting synonym , when I can
and
‘Humble like a Sunday afternoon,
Smiling as the hours bloom;’
might read better as
‘Humble as a Sunday afternoon,
Smiling while the hours bloom’
I just love the lines
The Christian in you
That makes you so sexy,
Every time I am with you
I praise God for he’s blessed me.
... The Christian in you'
great first write
I look forward to reading more of your work
love judy

For a while... I had to deliberate how to approach your commentary without so much enthusiasm, because you are an amazing critic. You have an eye for improvement and potential. I long to have such great statutes in me. Thank you.
Hi
The outside beauty is not as lasting as the inner. You might think to rework line 4 so as to make awaken not sound quite as forced. Welcome to neopoet and if you have questions about site feel free to ask anybody here.................stan

I apologize for not relying in a timely, yet I am still fascinated as to which stanza I need to paraphrase. Thank you for your intriguing critique. You are a puzzler and that is a good thing. Jesus himself spoke in parables. Amazing.
It is lovely, and sweet
but divisive. You have your own beliefs but many religions would say the same thing. While killing people of different beliefs.
Please be careful of using your religion to make a point, it will be countered by abortion centre bombers and other extremist religion types. Rather than use your religion, use you feelings.
Lamar Explicates
Thank you for your lovely commentary of both respect and concern. However, I do not afraid of other religious groups, sects, or organizations. It is my belief that religion is what makes the world is hostile. Faith is not the issue, but religion is. Your faith is your strength and your religion can be your strife. Religion is the organizational form of a faith or belief. The buildings, the leaders, the artifacts, and other things that are of this world put us in a religious category to where we cannot speak the same language. Theology is the study of God, not the study of religious things. Amen? I welcome all faiths, all beliefs, and I am fascinated to listen, to understand, and hear. But I also would like to share mine. That's all. My apologies if I offended anyone. My intentions if I inspired somebody.
i like how you have used your
i like how you have used your faith here as a personal
testament in regards to your lady love
not a sniff of preachy-preachy about it...just your truth
easy rhythm and rhyme, and as judy rightly said, they
suit the gentleness of this
my favourite lines?... "it's the christian in you/ that makes you so sexy"
i imagined you saying that with a twinkle in your eye!
my only suggestion is to capitalise He's in the penultimate line,
as you are referring to God
welcome to neo...hope you like it
cheers

You are a superb commentator. I am reading this critique over and over and I finally capitalized the "H" as suggested. Thank you for much. I can definitely both see and feel the difference.
