Since this topic has been bouncing around, lets do it!



Now showcasing on this thread is the World's top poets performing for you live ! (for a few minutes, that is):applause:



Please remember that all materials should be original or credit given to the author. No material can be copied without the express permission of the author or you will be breaking one of the 10 Commandments! mmm...mmm..You might need to read up and figure out which one it is....



Ok...lets have some fun...and enjoyment!





THE MENTOR



I see as you are

Not with eyes of prejudice or fault

But with anticipation of your every move...



Your voice is like a melody waiting to be sung

I hang onto every note with envy

Contemplating the next harmonious passage...



Consumed by the thing I fear most

I relish in the fragrance of courage and strength

Emmanating from you and am totally captivated...



Deep within me lies the essence of your soul

That I might someday walk as you walk now

Never measuring another by wealth but rather by

character portrayed...



Love does not describe what you mean to me

My Teacher, Guide, and Friend

May I someday be the reflection of this Priceless Encounter!



( this poem was written about a very special teacher who helped me to recognize my potential...years ago)

strawberi,

I used to write poetry a lot; but haven't done so in many years. Your post inspired me to get out my pen and paper. I wrote this one a few minutes ago.



A Man



A long time ago; a Man died for me.

I didn't even know Him; I was blind, and could not see.

He chose to give His life, so I could be set free.

He died so I could live with Him , throughout eternity.



How can I ever repay Him ? Impossible, I believe!

I now know Him as my Saviour.

In my Heart, He's been received.



Wouldn't You like to meet Him?

He'll come to you this day; Just ask Him for forgiveness.

He'll wash your sins away.



Not only did He die for me; He shed His Blood for you.

Accept Him as your Saviour.

He'll, indeed, make all things new.

strawberi,

Here's another one.



FRIENDS



I have many; so kind and dear.

Each of them share thoughts with me.

Words I need to hear.



Robin makes me laugh; Susie makes me cry.

As we gather 'round the throne one day;

Our God will show us why.



Phil and Sam have shown me peace;

How to find calm on a hectic day; And Sandy shows such sweetness in the words she has to say.



Will told me about a garden; My Lord and I go there.

A place where joy can fill my heart;

And Christ will answer prayer.



Bruce is such a Blessing! Teaching me God's Word.

Such joy he brings; many spiritual things.

So glad I "saw" and "heard" !



A couple more I'll mention, just before I go.

God's Hand is on and using;

RightKnight and geronimo !

God Bless You All :angel:

One more before I go to bed. I copywrote this song a long time ago. This is one of those quickie songs inspired, I believe, by God.



The Master Craftsman



The toy was finished, it's face all aglow

The hands of the Craftsman gently folded it close

With infinite love he placed it quite safe

To be used as a sample of His saving grace....!



He's Jesus the Master Craftsman Found a toy all broken with sin

He mended the delicate pieces

To make it run smoothly again...

He placed within it a new heart

Redeeming the inner most soul...

He's Jesus the Master Craftsman

Saved this toy that's ready to go!



With His his work completed He moved right along

To the next broken object..It needed a song

Yet while in the process He turned round to see

If the toy in safe keeping still worked properly.



He's Jesus the Master Craftsman

found a toy all broken with sin

He mended the delicate pieces

To make it run smoothly again

He placed within it a new heart

Redeeming the innermost soul

He's Jesus the Master Craftsman

Saved this toy that's ready to go...

Have a blessed night...

a repeat,,,



It's A TRUE STORY, " TWO HEARTS " !



Heart# 1 The Blackened Heart



I lost my parents, in a fire, at 12 years old, I'm left in direr. A mound of dirt, a lot of pain, smoke and ashes is all that remains.

No clothes, no shoes, nothing to wear, Fear gripped me, in my dispair.

Is life precious, I cannot tell, Earths rewards is full of hell.



Now left alone, walking in the street's, thugs and gang's, we're there to greet.

I soon robbed and hurt, shot a little boy to death, stood and watched him take his last breath.

30 years have past, taken it's toll, guard's and prison's, there to control.

Now on murderers row, the green mile, in this place there are no smiles.

I'm Hearing Silent Cries, throughout the Night, Grown Men Constant, living in Fright.

I'm hearing Silent Cries, men living in Fear, all the Voices in my ear's.



I'm a Dead Man Walking, my Spirit all alone, surely there's no place for me, before Gods Throne.

Death chamber waiting, Im bound in chains, Just a few more minutes, then no more pain.

Their sticking needles in my arm, I'm strapped to a bed, Witnesses jeering through a window, wishing I we're dead.



This way of death looks painless, to those who do not know, My body is parellizing, there's no way for us to show.

Every organ now revolting, foreign fluid takes it's stand, The arm's of death are clinching, coming to take this man.





Heart# 2 The Forgiving



Then up stood the Parents of the boy I had killed,

Sadness Impaled their face, to them this was no thrill.

Their eyes full of love, Two more hearts full of pain,

Through a window the man held up, a sign to me that day.



It said Jesus Loves you, and we do to,

We know your parents die in the fire, so we adopted you. Yes you killed,,, our Little Precious Boy,

Our lives came so close, to being destroyed.

Now People love to hate you, for the things that you have done,

But we are trying forgiveness, our example is Gods Son.

In agreement my wife is beside me, now she is your mother, Hopefully you'll soon be with the one you killed, and he will be your Brother.



God Has taught my wife and I, how to surrender and forgive.

We want to let you know, so you can aslo live.

You have so much pain, pent up deep inside,

Release your heart to him, he'll roll you over the tide.

Ask our Saviour for forgiveness, For He is a Gracious God. Your next life is soon to be better,

Hurry,,, Hurry,,, Hurry,,, do it now before you nod.



This is a true story of two men.
