Is True Love Possible? Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Is True Love Possible?



Can Heaven’s love in man be found?
Is Jesus’ blood so strong?
One’s sinful soul on Holy Ground
May sing Salvation’s song

Can man of sin afford such thoughts?
To join Christ’s faithful few
Disbelieving bible reports
Doubting if God is true

Most of mankind are bound for hell
To truth failing to yield
How will they know if none will tell?
The facts Jesus revealed

We must allow life’s facts to flow
Demolish true love’s dyke
For dismal souls to rise and glow
Treat neighbours and friends alike

World attitudes must stand upright
To God’s authority bow
Flee from darkness walk in The Light
Not tomorrow but now

With Day of Judgment close at hand
Christ’s cloud drawing near
Drink knowledge, as it floods each land
Teaching The Lord to fear

Grant love a crown, let wisdom reign
Let grace bring change of mind
Live; so when Jesus comes again
You won’t be left behind

True love can change both you and I
Can change the world at large
Can cause one’s self by faith to die
When Jesus Christ’s in charge…..

Wisdom and sentiments combined to reveal not just a glance at the Holy Bible but a lot of soul studying going on. The poems I've written about the Rapture of the Redeemed believers agree that we need to be on guard as to what's going on in the world today. This applies especially now, since Israel became a nation and fulfilled many of the Last Day prophecies. In Michael's poetry, I see a lot of questions, about how we are being transformed by the renewing of our minds, capturing every thought process to create a better world beginning in our own lives. I try to keep to a rhyme structure eg 8 syllables then 6 then 8 then 6. I keep reading the draft of the poem to work out the sequence as well as the way it sounds. Writing is like learning about better ways or better compromises just to get a finished work of art. This poetry reminds me that it's sometimes a struggle to get the phrases and the phrasing to work well together, yet the sentiments expressed here are inspiring. Thank you.
