Notes About The Poem

  Inspired by Joanna Daniel       Written on 6/18/2023

Noah

This tremendous feat God planned for my fate; 
I cannot wait, yet, if I sullen hate. 

How should I design and build such a boat 
to carry two of each, to stay afloat.

 Untamed, tame, small, large male and female beast; 
How do I gather and feed them at least? 

A global flood that everyone will drown 
if they do not plan, they will be pulled down. 

Do you hear them in the dark sky, it's true; 
Time is near and here they come two by two. 

The sun hides behind the dark clouds afraid 
As voices heard in moist cold wind; we prayed.

Wonderful Eve, we’ll never know how Noah kept his boat afloat and his family plus all the animals alive, it’s amazing what the power of prayer can do… Belle

Eve, Yes to two by two, it's raining again, and again. New beginnings wash all things clean of sin, it's raining again. -Richard
