A David For David

David is small teenage boy from Israel A son of Jesse whose king named Saul He carried a slingshot on his side for protection Used it for work with a matching pouch of stones There’s a war between Israel and Philistine Takes forty days for them to initiate how to begin David knew about the giant called Goliath Not afraid to fight him without any mask He only carried with him his faith to defeat The mighty giant whom every man is afraid One day David saw Goliath at the battlefield Ready to fight, so he closed his eyes and prayed The giant move forward for a great kill David reached his bag and used his skills The stone hit the giant straight in the forehead He fell face down on the ground and really beg David took Goliath sword, killed him and cut his head He did it finally and triumphantly makes the giant dead I compare this story of faith and bravery to our dear David the poet With his powerful poems makes us inspired even if we didn't meet yet Enjoy your long vacation together with your beautiful wife I know you are happy sharing unforgettable moments in life October 24, 2012 By: Maria Paz For Cyndi's "A David For David" Contest 1st Place Winner
