POETS CORNER
Thought we might be able to give room for some poems... if any felt so led to write them. These will be orignal poems... not copied from other sites. We can put a copywrite on 'em so as to protect their originality. You never know what we might get. Thanks for posting folks!

OH FOOLISH MAN
OH FOOLISH MAN
OH FOOLISH MAN
YOU THINK YOU ARE SO COOL
YOU LIVE IN PRIDE AND HATE AND LUST
AND OVER THE WEAK YOU LOVE TO RULE
YOU CHEAT THE FATHERLESS
YOU STEAL FROM THOSE SO POOR
BUT WITH EVERY DAY THAT PASSES
YOUR LIFE IS WAXING SORE
WHAT GOOD IS ALL YOUR GAIN
IF AT THE ROOT YOU HAVE NOT LOVE
IF ALL YOUR RICHES ARE OF THIS WORLD
AND NONE FROM UP ABOVE
YOU CAN QUAFF EVERY CUP OF PLEASURE
RAISE EVERY CUP OF FAME
BUT IT IS ALL VEXATION AND VANITY
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW HIS NAME
FOR HE CAME AND DIED FOR YOU AND ME
AND LIVED IN LOVE TO SET US FREE
BEING KING OF ALL THAT IS TO SEE
HE LIVES IN HUMBLE SIMPLICITY
SO FOOLISH MAN
TAKE HEART TODAY
TO SEE THE FUTURE
THIS I PRAY
AND REMEMBER
THAT THOU ART DUST
AND ALL YOUR’ PRIDE
WILL ONE DAY RUST

My Guide My Friend
My Guide My Friend
When there was much that I could not see
There was one who saw Eternity
And Though there was so much I did not know
Day by Day He Helped me Grow
The path was long the going slow
And the journey took me too and fro
Sometimes the climb seemed way too hard
But he helped me make it Yard by Yard
What guides my hand who cares for me
Oh weak man that I be
Who Sees my heart Who knows my soul
In this tough world of sin and woe
At last I reached my Journey’s End
And Met My Guide My Dearest Friend
When there was much that I could not see

But he helped me make it Yard by Yard
What guides my hand who cares for me
Oh weak man that I be
Who Sees my heart Who knows my soul
In this tough world of sin and woe

Re: POETS CORNER
YOU CAME TO ME
When I was in such desperate need, you came to me
And when I could no longer go on, you came to me
Then you gave me hope; you gave me your mercy,
Your love lifts me higher than any mountain,
With your grace, I now belong in your Kingdom
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
You gave your life for me before I came to be
Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord.
You’re my Savior, redeemer, healer, and friend
When you seemed so far in the distance, you came to me
And when the enemy was at my door, you came to me
Then you gave me joy; you gave me your Spirit
Your love lifts me higher than any mountain,
With your grace, I now belong in your Kingdom
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
You gave your life for me before I came to be
Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord.

Re: POETS CORNER
Fred, Bruce & Connie... those are great poems. Thank You! From the Heart and so moving! Enjoyed the way you stuck pictures with them to illustrate your message!
Wish I could do that, but I'm not a poet and I know it!
Thanks Again,
Chris

Re: POETS CORNER
On Facebook I've been in contact with old classmates and recently one of our friends passed away! I wrote the following poem in response to someones comment that our time was short!
OLD FRIENDS FROM THE PAST WE HERE DO SEE
WE’VE LIVED OUR LIVES TO BE ALL THAT WE COULD BE
BUT SOON THE BELLS WILL TOLL FOR US
AND WE WILL FINISH LIFE’S RACE… YES THIS WE MUST
AND MEET OUR SAVIOUR FACE TO FACE
MINUS ALL OUR FRONTS… THE TRUTH TO FACE
LORD HELP US TO DO OUR BEST FOR HIM
SO THAT WHEN WE MEET THAT REAPER GRIM
WE WON’T HAVE TO HANG OUR HEADS IN SHAME
ON THE FATEFUL DAY WHEN GOD CALLS OUR NAME
BUT INSTEAD WE CAN LIFT OUR HEADS WITH PRIDE
KNOWING THAT IN HIM WE DID ABIDE
AND HE GREETS US WITH A CHEERFUL WORD OR TWO
OF “WELL DONE THOU FAITHFUL SERVANT…” HEY BUBA… “THAT’S YOU”!

Re: POETS CORNER
Peter, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Your poem is a great tribute to him. Buba has graduated and is now walking the golden streets of heaven alongside Jesus. How wonderful and amazing is that!
God bless you.
