Christina - An Inspiration
Christina Georgina Rossetti 1839-1894
a true inspiration I find her to be
devout Christian a poet of great skill
possessing lyrical gifts for all to see
To my eyes her masterpiece was
writing through Jesus Christ's eyes
"the love of Christ that passeth knowledge"
this insightful work makes one's heart to rise
Portraying all the emotions of Calvary
the horror and agony of it all
what a sacrifice the Christ had paid
totally obeying His heavenly call
This poetical work shows Christ's victory
as one seeking a kingdom to gain
so His disciples could reap it's reward
as their Lord would eternally reign
So Christina is a true classic poet
one that inspires many a pen
London born of the Victorian era
few can compare with now or then
AUTHOR NOTES: Christina Georgina Rossetti 1839-1894, my inspiration in writing poetry ,
a queen among many poetical gems. my favourite being
'the love of Christ that passeth knowledge".
