Tom Zart Poems

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, preacher or teacher
But the blood of a soldier that has sacrificed by choice.
...

Think of young David with his sling and stone
As he toppled Goliath with God's help alone.
All heaven's hero's had someone to love
All heaven's hero's trusted God above.
...

My favorite poet is "God"
Who gives Earth its rhythm and rhyme.
Not pied pipers of misguided souls
Who promote distrust, hatred and crime.
...

When we fully surrender our soul to God
Our life is complete without blame.
Our heart beats to the joy of fulfillment
As we no longer shoulder our shame.

Take control of your actions, attitude and thoughts
By praying what would Jesus have me do?
All have felt sadness, fear, joy, ups and downs
As we depend on God grace to see us through.

A nation's wealth is not it's wheat, oil or gold
But the people who live there both young and old.
Their wealth is a product of man's daily toil
Be they swing wars saber or plow God's soil.

After death the wicked cease to be troublesome
And all who are faithful have Heaven to rest.
Those who apply their heart to seek God's wisdom
Are lovingly remembered by all they have blessed.
...

You never said I'm leaving, you never said goodbye.
You were gone before I knew it and only God knows why.

In life I loved you completely in death I love you still.
