What Is Worth Writing About?

A holy man came up to me, He held his Bible close, He knew that I wrote poetry And asked what themes I chose... So we sat down and I explained The titles helped me out, From such as these a lot was gained, So much to write about... It wasn't only Genesis That showed where life began, I knew that there was more than this, For God must have a plan... So I revealed what history taught And what we must believe, From all the evil sin has wrought Since one lie could deceive... But God would send His only Son, To help us change our ways, From foolish things that each has done, To good things angels praise... And even now, this very week, One poem said it all, There is a path that each must seek To find a miracle... Unless we humble hearts and minds, What use are we on Earth? Yet on life's journey each soul finds That God knows we have worth... So He invests a Father's love In everything we do, If only we would look above And tell Him, 'I love You! ' That holy man began to weep, As one who loves the Lord, As one who seeks God's laws to keep, As one who stands assured... He shook my hand, went on his way, As if with faith renewed, While I remained, to pause and pray, With heartfelt gratitude... Denis Martindale 17th of April 2016.
