Pensive Persuasion

Fright fraught
Savior sought
Truth taught
Fiends fought

Is he really still God today
Or historical and then went away
Can you believe what he has to say
Can he be real to me this day?

Christ caught
Blood bought
Angst aught
Wonders wrought

He truly died for me
Lifted up for all to see
Did not run or flee
Paid to set me free.



This is dedicated especialy to my writer friend Verna Mull who likes rhyming poetry - rhyme and alleteration can't be all bad, eh? Enjoyed the challenge of wirting this one. My senior English teacher, Mrs. Vickers would probably cringe. Had to use a rhyming dictionary and other helps but I think it paints a word picture that is accurate and valid. Or do I feel that way because I am so familiar with it? what doyou think?
