As I reflect back upon the many blessings
sent to me from God above
At the beginning of my very long list
is the blessing of God's great love
Of which He gave so freely
sending to us His only Son
To live and die upon this earth
so our eternal life could be won
He walked around as man on earth
for only thirty-three years, we're told
Then, one of His disciples,
for thirty pieces of silver, Him sold
Thanks to God up above,
that's not the end of the story
For Jesus, who lived, was crucified, and buried
the One God sent to earth from Glory
After He was crucified, they thought
he'd stay in the tomb, leaving never
Jesus, put to death for our sins,
on the third day arose, and now
HE LIVES FOREVER

(big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, yes, He died for us all but He lives on, for because of Him we are all saved and that we acknowledge His love and therefore He lives in each of us and His warmth burns like the sun! (sigh) I am so happy you are posting here, sweet friend, I too love to post here very much, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Ethel~
What a lovely find this morning~

Beautifully rendered ... Yes, He lives~


On a side-note ... I tried to reply to your BEAUTIFUL 11-verses in Open .... kept kicking me out .... BUT will take a moment here to tell you that your *gifting* is extraordinary~

I liked each of them ... and inter-woven they came out beautifully~
I've got a penchant for Senryu's and Haiku's and Tanka's too~ ...~
They can be quite addicting, can't they ?

Bless you on this chilly Florida morn~

Marge, I really appreciate you reading and replying to my poem.
Your comments are so encouraging. I'm really glad that you liked
the one I put together on Open Forum, too. Yes, I really do like to do
those little verses. They are habit-forming, aren't they?
Thanks again, sweet friend, for reading and replying to my poems.
