Christian Poems
The Crosse Of Christ
by Walter Raleigh
Rise, O my soul, with thy desires to heaven,
And with divinest contemplation use
Thy time, where time's eternity is given ;
And let vain thoughts no more thy thoughts abuse,
But down in midnight darkness let them lie ;
So live thy better, let thy worst thoughts die.
And thou, my soul, inspired with holy flame,
View and review, with most regardful eie,
That holy crosse whence thy salvation came,

How Sweet
by Michelle MayorgaO how sweet is your sunlight in the morning; how sweet the feel of your awakening. How fragile you are. Your warmth compared to none; my everyday security. Your love I am able to bury myself in, my satisfaction. How gentle your touch, calmly carving your fingerprint into my soul. O how thirsty it is. O how sweet. Your eyes infinitely shinning like the stars you have created. The eternal universe is in you. Your every breath melts my inner me letting me know you are here. I can taste your mercy. I drink myself over and over again so I am reborn back into your memory; back into your spirit. O how sweet. Like honey is the taste of your glory. Like water, is your presence to my soul. O how sweet you indeed are

by Wisdom Laud Bubune Orison
I'm blessed beyond measure
treasured above every other treasure
Not by pleasure
but by grace
grace that didn't consider my race
nor my pace
This grace considered me worthy
not because I'm wealthy
but because I'm filthy

Senseless
by FELLEX CHECA
Words of no profit,
Chitchat and debate
worth no participate!
Rather saving the lost,
Edifying the synagogue.
It’s the beast works
For men to mine;
Strifes among themselves,

It’s A New Day!
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
Good morning world...
It’s a new day...
The Sun has risen...
If we allow ourselves to live in the moment...
If we allow ourselves to receive the gift that nature offers us each and every morning...
It’s a new day...
The sky is clear...
The birds are chirping...
If we allow ourselves to leave yesterday behind us...

The Listening Heart
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
I had spent recent years in mourning, since I had lost someone very dear;
As when pallid moon is hidden by clouds, and bright stars will not appear.
My job as a professor consumed me, and I was happy for its distractions,
Like a pastel rainbow that's created, from mist and sunshine interactions.
My loved ones tried to cheer me up, with their caring words and gestures,
In those whirlwind days, fraught with bright sunshine, roses and lectures.
While empty smiles were ofttimes present, sadness trailed like moments,

My Crown of Thorns
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
You often ask me to be humble…
To comply as I endure so much pain…
I do so to please you, My Heavenly Father…
Unconditionally, without refrain…
As we are so often tempted…
By evilness with fiery horns…
Oh, Father, not my will, but thine be done…
As I sit here with my crown of thorns…

Traveling with God
by Dr. Robert Ippaso
A colleague asked “Are you a Christian”?
Implying if I practice my religion every day?
What a topic, subtly graphic,
How to answer, what to say?
A moral trap to utter “Yes”,
‘Thou shalt not lie’ jumping instantly to mind,
Should I now smile, force him to guess
Not showing I’m so clearly in a bind?
