Notes About The Poem

CONCRETE

 

My

Name

Is Jesus

I came to earth

Born in a bare stable

I came to save sinners

I was crucified dead and buried

I was resurrected on the third day

I ascended to heaven, seated on God's right

I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life

I am the Cornerstone, The Solid Rock

The Firm Foundation, build your life on Me

And the storms cannot prevail

You are absolutely right, Laura. I choose to acknowledge Him in nearly all of my poems. His Name is Powerful and His Blessings are bountiful. But I can readily see that you know this. Thanks for your support, and God Bless you!

Thanks, Jan! Your opinion means so very much to me. This is the first concrete form I attempted but I have been unable to delete the initial copy that is still evident beneath it. Hopefully, it will not get me disqualified. Even if it does, I have cherished comments from you and others.
