Tom Zart Poems

STARBUCKS

Around 1615 coffee came to Western Europe
Raising a huge controversy and warning cry.
...

Darling I love you with all of my heart and soul
Much more than any of God's blessings on Earth.
It's hard to believe Heaven planned it this way
For your love for me is far beyond my worth.
...

My life overflows with happiness
As my favorite dreams come true.
My days and nights are magical
Because of everything you do.
...

When Jesus commands “To Love Our Neighbors”
He’s preaching to serve others as our deeds are sown.
His life was an example how to love people
As we learn to survive relationships of our own.
...

It’s not a priest that gives us our freedom of religion
And it’s not a reporter that gives us our freedom of voice.
It’s not any judge, lawyer, politician, or teacher
But the blood of a soldier that has sacrificed by choice.
...

Google has become a world of its own
As hearts and souls communicate and relate.
There’s always someone 24 hours night and day
To converse with, respond to or debate.
...

Blessed are those who hunger for love
Who learn life’s secret of abundance and need.
For they shall be satisfied by God Himself
As by faith they overcome shame, fear and greed.
...

I’m God’s most humble poet
Whose poems have meter and rhyme.
Stories of love, faith, hate, honor and duty,
Obedience, war, heroes, history and crime.
...

Patience is hard to learn, master and maintain
As life is fast and time is running out for all.
No one enjoys practicing patience as a trait
As Abraham at 100 had Isaac by God’s call.
...

If it was left to me and my desire
I would seek satisfaction every other night.
I would enjoy your divine, God given love
And hold you forever close and tight.
...
