The Day We Forgot God Poem by JOE POEWHIT

The Day We Forgot God

Rating: 5.0


The day we forgot GOD.
Tears fell upon shaken sod.
Only to find myself alone.
Empty it was, a hollow home.
Sand and dust across time.
Grow and retreat, it was mine.
Lost in confusion of plastic ways.
Time is money for every day.
Lost in a fold of lost faith.
Crumbled church, the gutter waif.
Cold hearts sing in the choir.
Satan's song, road of the fire.

from my book: DREAMS

JESUS SAVES
