Roger Horsch Poems

Jack and Jill went over the hill
'cause the top was very small
They bounced and rolled right down the hill
like a great big rubber ball
...

Remember those days
when I was a child
Always in trouble
always so wild
...

Underneath the many stars
within the moonlit air
Is a great big face looking down at us
for, It seems to sit and stare
...

Sin
Selfish, Hateful
Avoiding, Denying, Disliking
Worker, Teacher, Politician, Artist
...

When I was a child coming down the stairs
on an early Christmas morn'
I was too young to know that this was the day
that our savior, Christ was born
...

Bebo was a bird
who could not fly
He kept flapping his wings
'cause he knew he must try
...

There is strength through prayer
For those who believe
He will always listen
Just pray to receive.
...

Does not wisdom call out her name
On our paths along the way?
That’s why we should listen really hard
For she has things of worth to say.
...

Sometimes we overlook the simplest of things
God laid before our eyes
Like the beauty we see in all His birds
Or the majesty of the skies.
...

Our spirits will radiate the joy of salvation
In all that we think and do
And we won’t get tired of doing God’s will
For the Word of the Lord is true
...
