Some letters came for me today
From long ago and far away.
The words were ancient but quite clear
They told me not to worry or to fear.
These pages seemed to bring to me
So many long, lost memories --
Of truth, the way, the path of right
To bring me toward eternal light.
The letters are bound into a book.
A book of scriptures, just take a look.
Yes, they were written to you and me.
They tell us of Christ's victory,
And how the words of prophets old
Bore witness of the Christ so bold!
They speak to us of his message sweet --
Life eternal and joy complete.
Some letters came for me today
That I did read without turning away.
They brought me peace and wisdom sure
And guidance from the Spirit pure.
I am better at writing prose than creating poetry. How long does it take you to create these tender expressions!
