Notes About The Poem

EXPLANATORY NOTE :A confirmed agnostic for 48 years about things spiritual  - until my experience (expressed in the poem below)as a newly born again Christian early in 1987 when I saw the face of Jesus regularly in my mind's eye 

I CAN'T BELIEVE I THOUGHT as an agnostic


Into a meadow,
I stopped by a gate

I often happened this way

Upon the stile I lent my arms,
Closing my eyes for a while

It often happened this way

Deep in my mind's eye
A vision,clear as day

They oftimes happen this way

This face of  a man,
Had become known to me

I had begun to walk His way.
