Premiere Contest WinnerDreamtime: Comes the Tide

There are those who will not hear the siren's wail,
But will know                the wheat has turned pale.

Winds will sweep up from the south and the west,
His chorus of trees         swaying bravely are Blessed.

Shields aside, faces lit in harmony,
Destiny, homogeny, all God's Children once more free.

Lightning, earthquakes, tsunami seas,
Herald His Coming                         while evil flees.

Shooting Stars, like hail from above,
Will cleanse us from sin            on Wings of the Dove.

And balance in nature will sweep o'er the land

With God in His Glory

Grasp all in His Hand

James apropos for the time of our life where earthquakes and natural disaster seem to be happening on a weekly basis. I like how you incorporated faith with your poetry about the happenings of the time.

I like this faith-based work. It is coming but I don't know exactly when nor all the details but it is coming. My father looked for it in his lifetime and now my life is coming to an end and I can see the time is drawing nigh but still we don't know when. I enjoyed reading your work. Your visit to my page was uplifting. Sara

The wheat has turned pale, plus tsunamis ... As Book of Revelation foretells. Then Jesus's second coming: "balance in nature will sweep over the land," sums up the New Earth, New Heaven. I am thankful Jimbo does remember his Brother Anil, & comes timeously PTL
