Can anything good come out of Nazareth? — John 1:46
It’s a speck
On the map
Nazareth
Let’s recap:
It was home
To a mere
300
(so I hear)
Nothing big
Nothing key
Just a spot
Zilch to see
Yet from there
Came the Christ
Who for us:
Sacrificed
This year for the A-to-Z challenge, I’m challenging myself to write a Cethramtu Rannaigechta Moire every day. I can’t pronounce it, but I can tell you that it’s an Irish poetic form that requires 3 syllable lines in quatrains. The second and fourth lines rhyme.
Additionally, I’ve been collecting questions for a few years — specifically questions from the Bible. I have so many questions.
Turns out the Bible is full of questions.
So, I’m using questions from the Gospel of John for this challenge.
Love this. Have a blessed day.
This definitely sounds like a challenge! Great poem for today

I am truly impressed with your writing skills. I’ve never been able to write “poetry” – especially the kind that requires couplets, quatrains, certain number of syllables, etc. I really like today’s.
Sally I really like this one! Perhaps one of the better so far. But maybe that’s because it was just a topic covered in a discussion at church…
Great rhyme – Christ/sacrifjced
I heard a sermon about that text recently.
