Tennessee Morn 26 January 2006 Like a shooting star on a Tennessee morning That Chattanooga day Where from the sky you would have thought it was Christ returning To this place of Memphis Like an ancient city of Egypt where Moses was set adrift along the Nile The morning you looked into His eyes in wonder to smile With the sound of a trumpet and voices of angels in the air Those of Georgia awaiting to prepare Another day - another second to pass this day of Tennessee a bright star hung in the sky For this day a Saviour was born that day in Chattanooga a shooting star was seen on your Tennessee morn “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” Matthew 24:31 KJV POET's Note: I live in New Zealand and have never as yet, visited the USA or lived there, but in my mind. a poet who cares |

How beautiful! I was surprised to see you have never been there, but I suppose the odd city and state names were what caught your attention. Rae |

I am good at what I do - and virtual USA is a thing I specialise in composing. Only my latest is not so good maybe 5124 A Wave of Ocean Side 26 February 2006 Across the Pacific Ocean this Gulf of Santa Catalina Mission Viejo down Los Angeles way Lake Forest on the Santa Ana for free on a path to Laguna Woods and Hills Southern California on the way to Oceanside the ‘eye’ Five to San Diego on route Lake Forest Drive - Veeh Ranch Park Mountain View Park - Orange County All those places of contrast to San Bernardino and the Santa Rosa mountains view This by way from El Toro to pursuit the Golden State in bridges of ocean to see West coast U-S-A - where the sun does shine a land of hope and glory to forth ride Horses of happiness - her heart does give of Lake Forest - California - to live “for Julie” a poet who cares |

Nice poem. I love the content. It must be more prose than poem because the flow of rhythm is not there, but the meaning sure sticks out. I loved it and I love the fact that people are writing about the end times and the return of Jesus. Great content and emotion. Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |
