Poem
An Answer to Question For answer to question my mind does yearn; How long will it take for my soul to return? Back to heaven where it once had been, With Jesus second time will soul return again? Distance between heaven is how long? To be right does it really require a wrong? When you want a sing a song properly, Do the words and notes have to agree? To be saved tell me what requirements are And I know that God is my guiding star Believing in Him has to be a major part; What should I do for my saving to start? Suppose last moment of life I am now living; My soul back to God I have been giving Hope he handles it with a whole lot of care Until soul in heaven is finally there. Into heaven, my soul did safely arrive Over such a long distance had to survive But I know length of time will be brief Which surely will provide me with relief. What I wonder about and also suppose Will my soul need to have travelling clothes Once in heaven by all will be recognized Even though some were actually surprised. James Thomas Horn Retired Veteran Last poem for month of September, 2014 From start, it was me who they recognized.
