J18 The Kingdom Of Heaven Poem by Simple Simon

Parable of the Hidden Treasure

“A man had immense pleasure
When he found out a treasure,
That was in someone’s land,
Hidden deep under the sand.”

“He sold what all he had.
And bought that land
He was happy, in the end,
At the treasure, he found.”

“Like this, a man can gain
The kingdom of heaven,
If he takes more pain,
For the same, to attain.”

Parable of the Pearl

“To buy fine pearls
A man goes and sells,
Unmindful of any loss,
Whatever things, he has.”

“The kingdom of heaven,
Like this, anyone can gain,
This path, when he chooses,
In its pursuit, then he goes.”

Parable of the Net

“Some fishermen threw their net,
And all kinds of fish, they caught.
When they came later ashore,
They claimed each one’s share.”

“While good fish, they kept
The bad ones, they threw out.
Like this, angels will push out
Evil people, when they select.”

Short appear these parables,
But such simple examples
Sat in the minds of people,
Who appreciated Jesus well.

“Such a divine wisdom
He received wherefrom?
How he does each miracle?
He cured how many people? ”

“Isn’t he Mother Mary’s son?
Is he really Godsend one?
James, Joseph, Simon, Judas
Aren’t they his brothers? ”

“Do his sisters live here?
How he talks with no fear?
Is it a magic or divine power?
How he became so popular? ”

In every village and town,
This kind of talk went on.
Many morally accepted him.
But some totally rejected him.

Jesus came with a mission.
So, he had no aversion.
He never hated anyone,
But he loved everyone.
