A Convict Poem by Kinyua Karanja
A Convict
I was truly a convict
Declared guilty of sin by verdict
Of the most highest just juror
I was a life time wrongdoer
I deserved death penalty.
Heavily laden with guilty
A friend saw my distress
Being compassionate of my stress
Set out to help
When he heard my yelp
Leaving his noble life in heaven
He was born among men
I did all the mistakes
For him blame to takes
In world court of laws
Jury raised its jaws
He bore all the shame
And took all the blame
That was mine alone
He was a sacrificial lamb, one
Without blemish or defects
For my sins to clear and protects
Me from death and hell
He died painfully on the cross as well
But hell couldn’t hold him still
Nor the chain counters his will
To cleanse all our sins
In all, in everything he wins
That was the cost paid
Everything is done he said
As a new relationship was laid
Between human kind and God.
That was the cost paid For everything is done he said.Nice poem.Thanks for sharing.I invite you to read and comment on my poem cofession of a Martyr if you like.Regards.

The noble god from heaven came to the earth to save the life convict. You deliver the readers a cup full of imagination mixed with religious ideas. Being a teacher, you do it with expertise. When I saw the name of your country, I felt abundant pleasure, because a reputed journal, Educational Research and Reviews published my research article on Poetry in April(2015) . Thanks a lot.
