Voice Mail nowadays is a nuisance,
It's becoming too often routine,
But imagine if it was in Heaven!
If you will, try to picture the scene.
"Hello and We thank you for praying,
To continue, remain on your knees
And select from the following menu
Any one of the options you please.
"All our angels right now are quite busy,
Helping sinners who prayed before you,
So hang on and try to be patient,
You'll be glad that you did when you do.
"Press 1 if you're seeking forgiveness,
Press 2 if you're offering thanks,
Press 3 to do gripes and complaining;
Number 4's for agnostics and cranks.
"Press 5 if you're wanting Our Father,
Press 6 to consult with His Son;
Press the pound key if you're getting frantic
And are dying to reach ANYONE.
"Press Zero to dial Operator,
If it's busy don't panic or fuss,
Just wait and re-pray a bit later,
Your prayer is important to Us.
"Your prayer may perhaps be recorded
And relayed later on back to Earth;
To hear psalms, while you wait, by King David,
Please enter the year of your birth.
"You may pray every day except Monday,
There's a chance you may reach someone live;
Please don't pray before eight in the morning
And there's nobody here after five.
"Well, thank you again and keep praying,
We hope that you have a nice day;
In the future for aid or for comfort,
Remember We're here, so just pray."
Lol! You are the first one I read on here who has the punctuation done well! Congrats! Well, beautiful poem, quite funny actually.
Wow, if prayer were really like that, I'd be on my knees for the rest of my life! Nicely written!
Please do write more!
Yeah, Lol! same here!
Hello, I don't really agree with this at all.
I mean, you can not find anywhere in the bible angels helping sinners.
that is totally nonsense.
Remember, angels are not Divine!
Is that honestly your work?
It was a joke and a very clever rhyme, so relax! This is why I'm so glad I'm a Hellenic polytheist. If one god can't answer, another will. Then again, if Hermes blocks the line, I'll be stuck with my hands up in the air! lol Seriously, though, great work.
I thought it was hilarious. I do wonder if it's real though, I mean not real, original, sorry. If it is, it's good
roflmao! very original and creative. did you write it?
