Chaucer Project

In English we were assigned to write a Chaucer styled poem about ourselves in form of an allegory. So I chose to be the messenger.

The Messenger


He is a messenger for the king of all

The one which every knee will bow down and fall

To Worship Him as name above all names

And tell people how to run from the flames

His mission is to make him known

To inform people how to not be alone

The true Gospel is what he delivers

Not to conform to the ones who are givers

Standing for Him when nobody else will

Is his hearts vision that he will fulfill

He will keep speaking about Christ's cruel death

Even to the moment of his last breath

For him to live is Christ to die is gain

Any thing less and his life is in vain

He prays at night with a heart broken cry

Knowing they need Jesus before they die

Proclaiming to all they must soon repent

Or be in Hell for eternal torment

His voice is loud with utter urgency

Yelling so they realize its an emergency

Begging to declare Him Savior and Lord

To always abide by God's Word the sword

He lives to hear God say, well done servant

Always showing his love for God is fervent
