The following was inspired by Pentecost Sunday. How about some more poems to this subject????? Virginia Salter is it wrong to write prattle from here to Seattle or should one just write consciousness? if the word on the page doesn’t set one to rage should one turn eyes away in disgust? can something be said from the top of the head or only deep thought come from within might levity and brevity fill one’s heart cavity or should one only counter all sin could ministry be served with elan and verve or must one use fire and brimstone could only sharp thorns seen upon Whom was borne touch hearts with a true edge of crimson can only poetry, prose divulge the true Rose when the depth of its true intention goes beyond the mind’s eye leading one to harsh cry be the only strong form of convention? might the color and light of a rainbow so bright touch the hearts of all willing perceivers turning mistrust and fear into faithful and dear daring and praising believers? on this Pentecost Sunday may it be one day that lovers not fighters convey the Light of the Lord throwing down every sword then kneeling together to pray © June 3, 2001 |

This is great VAS, I too was thinking about writing something for Pentecost but dilly dallied. Our minister is very sincere and inspired. The church was so pretty with the tongues of fire everywhere. Joyce |

VAS, Pentecost Sunday is not stressed by the denomination that I am currently affiliated, so I suppose that the event has come and gone and I was not at all made aware... but, by your poetry it seems to be a wonderful time and experience in the Lord. As for me, I would much rather experience a message of unity in the Love and Grace of God, than a message of Fire and Brimstone and prattle from Seattle is A-OK with me. Bob <>< |
