Lord Jesus Looked Different Today! Poem by Denis Martindale

When I awoke with sleepy head... I thought about the Lord...
As I stayed lying on my bed... all other thoughts ignored...
And I saw Jesus full of hope... and smiling straight at me...
The King of Kings who ruled the globe... and conquered Calvary...

Upon the white robe Jesus wore... a single poppy glowed...
Because Christ knew what it stood for... and that, to me, He showed...
No words were spoken at that time... the day that vision came...
Suffice to say it was sublime... I wasn't left the same...

That blood red poppy said enough... and that made me think twice...
Of all the men who died with love... were they in Paradise?
Were any saved by Jesus Christ? Were any saved at all?
Their precious lives were sacrificed... and Christ saw each one fall...

Yet now Christ stood with poppy worn... Remembrance still in mind...
He stood there smiling, not forlorn... for Christ died for Mankind...
Who knows the rewards He will give? A crown for each of these?
I only know that while I live... I walk this Earth in peace...

This Gospel poem was shared on Revelation TV's
R-Mornings programme just after 11 am and as both
the TV presenters were wearing their poppies, too…
