A Review
Jesus wins
Against Satan
We know the outcome
We know the end
It is written in the Bible
“And they lived happily ever after”
Will happen
I’d rather have
That certainty
Than one wish granted
By a story book genie
Even three
Poetry is not often something I would jump at reading, but this book caught my eye - I was not disappointed. The author has composed a set of 28 pieces of Free Verse poetry speaking to the author’s and the reader’s relationship to God and the world. They are thoughtful and meaningful - often addressing real questions that are not simply answered.
Each poem is two to four pages in length (the snippet above is a fraction of the entire poem), including colorful photographs that draw the reader in. Each poem has its own theme: creation, the Trinity, Fairytale Endings, etc. This thoughtful collection of poems is worth 5-stars.
