Because God Has A Sense of Humour…..


My life is a disaster, when it comes to relationships
Even if I asked Mary, our Mother
The guy she’d send me
Would probably fall for my brother!

God loves to send me, all the wrong men
I appreciate all the experience, you understand
But I was just wondering
When do I get to see, the Promised land

He never gives you more then you can handle
But I do believe, my plate is getting fatter
It was a small saucer
But has grown into an entire serving platter!

I am really glad
That I keep you so amused
But em…God, Sir….
Please excuse me if I’m not always enthused

They say there is someone for everyone
Or is this just a rumour?
It probably is true…just not for me
Because God has a sense of humour!

this was very cute marina..and way cool...
I love a poet who can laugh at themselves...
glad to see your keeping your sense of humor sharp as well.
great poem marina-girl.
take care, jm

 Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there.
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind...
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind...
The wind and your love to carry me.

So, you have heard the one about the priest and the rabbi?  LOL

Great poem Marina. . . nice to see that you have a sense of humour about the whole thing. . .it's about all you can do. . . and don't worry, I'm sure that He (or She) has some big things in store for you. . .

Marina now this is a cute and humourous poem.  I often feel the way that you do, but have hope God does create soul mates for everyone, when at least that's what I believe.  

Take care,

This is cute   God certainly does have a sense of humor but I don't think He's sending you the wrong guys. It's when you're not looking, you'll find it.

See with all this experience now you'll know what to look for and what not to

Marina, God does have a sense of humor because I know He has been laughing at me for a long time. Acutally, we've have been laughing together.
Enjoyed reading your poem..Good writing as always.

nice poem, made me smile

He does have a sense of humour.
Maybe he's testing you, and you will be rewarded with the perfect man

Thanks to all!
God indeed does have a sense of humour, I suppose it is true that man and women were made in his likeness.  But I think when he made me....he was borderline nuts.

I enjoyed this SO very much. The title had me intrigued.  With all these broken heart poems around(no offense meant to anyone)we need a little cute poem like yours to balance the variety of poems. Did I already say I enjoyed is ALOT?I think so, oh well!
