Good Christian poem about looking forward to Jesus 's return.
The beginning of the end times are getting stronger - Covid, Ukraine, Gay Pride increase, million of people still starving to death, population increase at 8 billion, abortions increase, apathy towards God, increase on spending on one's self, knowledge increase re computer and outer space and on and on ! more »

Those who are born once, die twice.
Those who are born twice, die once !
Savvy ?

Excellent poem about our Lord
Mary of Bethany has poured perfume on Jesus 's head as an offering worth a years salary ! What a story ! That feat never to be equaled ! 100 % tithe !
Where your heart is indicates true worship. more »

John 10 : 27, My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow me.
To hear His voice read the Bible and go to a gospel believing church
It is not a feeling but God living inside of you to lead a new life in Christ !
The onus is on you to believe. more »

This poem deserves a thousand comments,, a true to life story of extreme loss
Human life loss especially in children is too hard to put in words
I lost a baby girl, Stephanie so I know.!

Excellent poem about friendship !
A true friend is one that see your mistakes but still likes you !
Warts, blemishes and bumps people see but a friend looks inside of you for the real you !

If you are not Dutch you are not much !
The work ethnic of these people is beyond reproach.
A very hard working poem indeed !

A very revealing Christian poem. - an ever lasting relationship,
Salvation only takes a moment, but transformation takes a lifetime

This is a very timely poem about our situation today.
It should be posted in every hospital to let mothers know how precious babies are !
We had 2 children plus another by adoption, that was 55 years ago when adoption was a normal choice to make, never abortion !
In some hospitals it was against the law !! more »

I am the same age as you, born 1934 and depend on my daughter for my needs So I understand the burden we both share. To lose control of one's ability to perform our daily tasks is part of the old age factor !
So we turn into poets of sorts and try to live on !
Your poem was heart warming to me !
I look forward to your next poem about old age ! more »

A very thoughtful poem about waiting on the lord to answer our prayers,
We are often discouraged when out lives are in turmoil and life hurts.
Reading His Word - the Bible, memorize. key verses and other sought out Christian literature will help. plus the computer !
Thanks again for your poem, it helped me today as I am a shut in.!
You have a gift, write more about our Lord. more »

This is a very descriptive poem about time, very true to life for each season of life !
Time goes by so slowly and time can do so much if you are an elder - too much time on your hands !
But remember this
Time flies like an arrow
Fruit flies like a banana !
Thankyou again for your timely poem ! more »

Thankyou for that very reflective poem about the Son.
A reality journey about His appearing coming soon !
Surely such a time as now would be welcomed by His people !
Imagine, to be alive when Jesus comes the second time !

The world is killing itself, come Lord Jesus and take us home !
Looking forward for another Ronald Broadstone poem ! more »

Love this poem ! We spend 1/3 of our day in bed ! And when you get older, it increases all the time ! And the dreams get longer too ! ( our memories are made of this )

Excellent poem on describing an artist !
An artist paints with brush and paint
The poet paints with pen and paper.
I wrote a similar poem called Two Artists ! Nice reflection !

Carpe Diem, a great saying, I did a lot of cross country cycling like a 100 miles in a day or more ! My fellow cyclist had that saying on his bike and it fit the moment like a glove fits on your hand !
Make your memories count by seizing the day ! more »

You paint quite a picture of an early snow ! Our seasons can be fickle, in this case turning the red leaves into brown a bit early. But the sun comes to the rescue letting winter come in slowly.
A very entertaining poem about nature at it's best ! more »

Life is a race _ 1 Cor 9 : 24 -27
Don't you know everybody runs to win, but only one wins, But run in the race as if to win ! We are all winners if we run well !
Babies craw, kids walk, but athletes run ! more »

This is a very intimate and epic poem.. Its real to life, as true love always does.
Losing a spouse in health or accident is one thing but to lose one in this manner is beyond words. Please be strong and live a day at a time.
Rachel, you are on my prayer list ! more »

You have a treasure in each other, it is priceless but it's worth will always grow
as the years will bless both of you !

Reading the Bible without knowing the Author first can be risky business.
It is a divine book and could make no sense to the reader !
My sheep hear my voice and listen and follow me ( verbal )
The best way is - go to a gospel believing church and hear His Word being preached !
That's what happened to me in 1956 and still going strong in 2022 !

John 3 : 16 more »

A poet's prayer, how original !
If only our words could be used for the Lord's glory,
And not our egos, then lets have a poet's prayer !
We need all the help we can get !
( cheek in tongue )

Nicely written poem !
Trust and obey for there is a Way !

A lady of age, is your life like a parade ?
Here to day and gone tomorrow.
Capture the moments you did
Your memories were never hid !
Poem on.

A wonderful poem about the " storms "of life !
Real storms and trials of life.
And to know that the Master can tame them !
So aptly said.
