Our Saints Were Sincere- Three Variations Of The Same Theme - Three Poems by M.N. Hopkins

St. Francis Of Assisi


Version # 1

Our Saints were sincere

Thorns in the side of the Church

Made Saints after death

Version # 2

Our Saints were sincere

Thorns in the side of the Church

Scorned then, useful now

Version # 3

Our Saints were sincere

Thorns in the side of the Church

They loved from The Source

Note:    I wrote these three poems a week ago in three variations of the same theme.  If one changes one or more words it can change the meaning yet stay within the same theme.  The reader can decide which poem resonates the most with them and tell me in the comment section below which number it was.   If you would be so kind?

I have written all three poems in the haiku style of poetry and published them on my blog for the first time today, the 7th of October,  2019.
