A Caring Man

There comes to us each Thursday morning One very interested in our group sharing The texts to be used the next Sunday His explanations of the verses help hear what they say Our questions asked, sometimes simple, sometimes deep His answers almost never put us to sleep The Spirit speaks through this spiritual man Understandable words spoken like few can An hour Bible study, most times extended by half Quite often interspersed with a hearty laugh Who is this teacher/preacher sent to us to speak Knowledgeable words our hearts seek That one who longs for God's word, our hearts to fill The one known to all of us as our friend, Pastor Bill

Thank you for your kind comment. It is uplifting to have someone appreciate what a person writes, especially considering that I began writing poetry only 10 months ago at the age of 69. Thanks again
