Poem Title:
Poem
The past becomes a lesson All of them had a session with destiny In their century they stood firm so Here is a toast to the three that died And to the One who is living! First a toast to Watchman Nee Through your readings I learned the power of bowing my knee As a teenager your readings Melted over my life Soon I would understand the knife of sacrifice A toast to you, Watchman Nee! Second a toast to Leonardo Da Vinci You were the Renaissance man who Had a wonderful romance with life You shattered the ordinary matrix and Produced extraordinary results You taught me to break the shackles that live within the norm A toast to you, Leonardo Da Vinci Third a toast to Bobby Fischer A man of courage who Sparked a flame in life Your work ethic in chess will remain a pathway So that I can enhance my skills in life A toast to you, Bobby Fischer Fourth a toast to the living, Jesus Christ You are in a class of your own You are the Specialist and You are the Author and finisher of my faith No one compares to you; you know everything! Your Government is Eternal and you can never fade A toast to you, Jesus Christ the Greatest of All Time! Mark Frank Copyright 2023
