Royston Allen Poems

Woven together on a heavenly loom
I was formed by God whilst in my mother's womb.
Then the days of my life in His book were penned
from before I was born right up to the end.
...

We've lost the baby or so we thought
rushing back from holiday all distraught.
Anxiously waiting with concern as we pray.
'It's alright', we heard the doctor say.
...

I praise God for each and every year
that I have been married to you my dear.
Each day has been such a delight to spend
with you my lovely soul mate and my friend
...

Before the Daystar was in position
and the planets began their round
Or the galaxies were called into being
and a single star was found.
...

All through the dark night we were toiling there
and as dawn rose we looked on in despair.
Then a voice called aloud from the sea shore
'On the other side you will catch much more.'
...

Jesus walking on the water drew near
'It is a ghost', I cried out in my fear.
Blinded by the waves that pounded on board
I failed to notice that it was the Lord.
...

I was intricately woven upon Your heavenly loom
as You carefully knit me together in my mothers womb.
In that most secret of places when my conception took place
You prepared me for my birth and entry into the human race.
...

It's him Lord and he has done it again!
Why can't he just stop and learn to refrain?
He still wants me to forgive him once more
But he's done it so many times before!
...

Tick, tick it goes so quick
Tick, tock it's 12.00 o'clock

and my time's run out!
...

On the Sabbath with my shrivelled deformed hand
in front of all the people I took my stand.
Everyone was watching expectantly
I know it's the Sabbath but will He heal me?
...
