"a Christmas Thought"

Free verse rhyme As the world’s slippery slope of glorified knowledge Leads a three ring circus of hell laden minds An amazement to witness, one Simple Truth so hard to find I sit and ponder in great wonder, an awesome illusion As the great mystery of iniquity doth already work Great imaginations holds center stage, as a heathen’s rage God please turn the page! For just a precious few to find the narrow way Such a hellish illusion protrusion in Love’s wake But Love will speak to all, as to it’s true witness they seek, "This Christmas, so shall love speak" 12-16-09 johnmosesfreemanyahoo.com

YOu have many cool poems about love, JOhn. I like this! I have been telling a few people why I wrote the One Life to Live poem (probably should just give the story at the beginning of the poem, but go to mail and see why I wrote it!)

thanks for the isaiah 30:26 scripture reference, It is mystical, I am going to have to do some more studying on it.

Words of love are often heard at Christmas, Moses. Hope we can keep these same feelings all year long. And I must agree that sometimes the "simple truth (is ironically) so hard to find." Very spiritual perspective. Love you, Carolyn
