Tom Zart Poems

EYES OF LOVE

A mind may see a thousand eyes
Though the heart yearns for two
...

When Christ stood full in the river Jordon
With water streaming from His face and hair.
The Holy Spirit descended in the form a dove
Voicing His approval to preach, teach and share.
...

A good woman or man always seeks Jesus
For forgiveness and how to respond.
When we live only for self-gratification
Our protection from Heaven is gone.
...

Love exists in the minds of man
From conception to surviving life's test.
Hate comes about by the misjudgments of sin
As our trust in God brings forth our best.
...

Life can hit us with the unexpected
When that happens sometimes we feel pain.
It makes us wonder does God really care
As our troubles seem to multiply and remain
...

With freedom comes a time for remembrance
Of America’s hard won victories over wrong.
It’s the reason we honor our brave men and women
By our gratitude, love, support and song.
...

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.
...

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.
...

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.
...

The prize jewels of any nation
Are the philosophers of the heart.
How they think is universal
For it’s God who makes them so smart.
...
