Denis Martindale Poems

When God looked at the hummingbird,
It caused His face to smile,
Despite the way that it looked blurred,
Its wings moved with such style...
...

When tigers walk around a lot,
They find a spot to rest,
Because the sunshine's way too hot
And they don't feel so blessed...
...

The tiger sensed bath time was near,
So he obeyed that call,
The stream had always brought him cheer,
Close to the waterfall...
...

The lion stared at his domain,
The land he'd been scarred for,
Beyond this, what was there to gain?
He couldn't want for more...
...

The ostrich led the way ahead,
The young walked in its trail,
Not one of these felt fear or dread
Though fluffy, fair and frail...
...

When I first saw the buffalo,
Of course I was impressed,
How mighty must a creature grow
To stand out from the rest?
...

I know a man called Rainbowheart,
Though young, his beard is curled,
Determinedly he's made a start,
So he can change the world!
...

Florida Panther, I see you!
Your markings make you known,
That's why I need no further clue
Than photos I've been shown...
...

Amid the realm of painters known,
God granted him his fame,
In many aspects quite alone,
That's why I know his name...
...

With Pentecost, God's Spirit came,
His ministries to start,
With those who called upon Christ's Name,
To dwell within each heart...
...
