Udiah (witness to Yah) Poems

Dad,
A great many thanks for all you have done
Without you my life would not have begun
You have been there when I most needed you
...

Lord, Shepherd my dad today
In green pastures let him lay
To still waters guide his way
Restoreth his soul, I pray
...

‘Too much of a good thing may be bad'
As the old cliche' goes
So always do things in moderation
Just like The Lord of Heaven knows
...

You've been the greatest mother to me
Teaching me many things that others never see
And so I write to you this very day
That The Lord may bless you in every way
...

The innocent were slaughtered
So many years ago
In the town of Bethlehem
Slew by an evil foe
...

To be absent from the body
Is to be present with the Lord
The dust returns to earth
The spirit returns to God Who gave it
...

Around the hub, the galaxies turn
Pinwheels scrubbed, in magnetic urn
Gravity attracts, while motion glides
Equal force acts, to sustain the rides
...

Fighting for freedom,
Fall of a valiant soldier
Resting in the Lord
...

I cried out to you in the morning
Did it from despair
I cried out to you in the midlight
Hoping you would care
...

after summer's rain
God's promise is remembered
glorious rainbow
...
