Samson and Tina from Timnah

by Chelsea Smith

Samson was a man blessed beyond compare

He had crazy locks of thick magic hair

He was under the cover of God, and a manly man

But a hopeless romantic

Who fell for a woman from another land

Tina of Timnah caught his eye

And he summoned her for marriage without being shy

The family protested

He just ignored

He wed her, so he could bed her, and took advantage of the Lord

He made a bet with the family

With a riddle of rhyme

But then divulged the secret

In a matter of time

Tina told the fam

And Samson lost the bet

So he killed a bunch of men

To pay for the set

Samson is prideful

A liar too

He takes advantage of his covering

And in the ends he’ll loose

All that he has and later his hair too

Because he shot up his ego

And let go of the truth.

Tina and Samson could have used some aid

Get some pre-marital counseling before you get laid

He could have used some knowledge before he got all stoaked

Let’s talk about your different faiths

You need to be equally yoked

Let’s look at what the Bible says about love and marriage

And gender roles, expectations

Before we bring out the baby carriage

Let’s face it Sammy

You don’t even know this lady

You’re intentions seem odd

 And a little bit shady

Let’s slow it down

Talk it out

Before you get hitched

Tina is not what you think

To her family she snitched

Her love is conditional

And yours is thin

This marriage isn’t wise

And she’s living in sin

I hope in the end

You two will be smart

And end this relationship

Before you lose heart

Samson you need some correction

You salty dog

Spend some time on your self

And Keep after God
