Notes About The Poem

Along Comes a Flood

He warns, in love, of a time when we won’t have a second chance to ask Him into our heart. – quote by poet ~~~ He tried to warn them all God was about to pour down Rain that would drown the world Destroy all life with His flood He wasn’t that different Than the modern day preacher He warned them time would run out And they’d be left without a prayer He told them the time was coming When life as they knew it Would cease to be – nothing Would survive the destruction He cautioned with his urging God is bringing a downpour Not one will survive this flood When it comes, there is no shelter He worried about the fate Of those he knew would die But he told them over and over Its only a matter of time Noah wasn’t so different From the preacher of today Who is telling us about the hope We have if we believe in His grace ~~~ Genesis 9:13 KJV -“I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.” Pick-A-Title, Vol 28 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh January 27, 2022 TITLE chosen: 1.

Heartiest congratulations on your win in my contest, Regina:-) I'm rather surprised at the lack of comments. Wonderful imagery throughout your fabulous, biblical poem. Well-done!
