Christian Poems
It’s A New Day!
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
Good morning world...
It’s a new day...
The Sun has risen...
If we allow ourselves to live in the moment...
If we allow ourselves to receive the gift that nature offers us each and every morning...
It’s a new day...
The sky is clear...
The birds are chirping...
If we allow ourselves to leave yesterday behind us...

My Crown of Thorns
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice
You often ask me to be humble…
To comply as I endure so much pain…
I do so to please you, My Heavenly Father…
Unconditionally, without refrain…
As we are so often tempted…
By evilness with fiery horns…
Oh, Father, not my will, but thine be done…
As I sit here with my crown of thorns…

Traveling with God
by Dr. Robert Ippaso
A colleague asked “Are you a Christian”?
Implying if I practice my religion every day?
What a topic, subtly graphic,
How to answer, what to say?
A moral trap to utter “Yes”,
‘Thou shalt not lie’ jumping instantly to mind,
Should I now smile, force him to guess
Not showing I’m so clearly in a bind?

With streaks in the sky.
S.O.S.
by Alison H.
Help. Me. Light.
Save. My. Ship.
Can’t. Feel. Life.
Just. The. Grip.
Of. Sharp. Knives.
Will. I. Trip?
God. I. Need.
You. Right. Here.
Cause. My. Cheeks.

The Sleep Of Life
by Michael J. Nappi
Dreams of life lived
younger self and world
safety and comfort nestled in womb
sweet heartache... first love's nip
Lifetimes of lovers come and gone
muscle cars; backseats and drive ins
four legged friends and two faced enemies
wakes lost in faded waters

The Tension of the in-between
by Sylvia Ochieng
Oh such a glorious invitation
What a spiritual adventure to walk with the Most High
Infinite God and finite man on a love expedition
Oh, what mystery encamps the steer!
Deeper still He woos intently
Through faith's alley abide completely
In the dark, uncertain, hear the voice
Follow steadily without noise
