Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
LIFE LESSON (THE OLD LADY TO THE YOUTH)
   
Author: Susan Salisbury
   
Poem:
LIFE LESSON (THE OLD LADY TO THE YOUTH)
   
  Skinny-stick, wide-hipped lady
Shapeless flowered gown
Pokes at concrete crevices
As she plods her way downtown.

With a zigzag walk and inside talk
That no one leans to hear,
She prods the hedge for villainy-
Her cane, a plucky spear.

"I got no use for muggers,
"'Cause they just a sorry lot."
She clicks her tongue and rambles on,
"They want the stuff I got."

A crooked boy, contemptible,
Behind her halts to sneer.
"You ain't got nothin',Grandma,
But your wrinkles and your rear."

She whirls around and levels down
The now astonished youth
As open-mouthed, he swallows up
Her crusty bitter truth.

"Ain't no difference 'tween us boy!"
She bellows in his face,
"Just miles and tears and 'couple years-
We both in this same place."

GOD'S PROMISE
   
Author: Corina Debord
   
Poem: GOD'S PROMISE
   

The Lamb came down
to start God's Plan.
He fulfilled His duty
for the existance of man.
He was sent here to Earth
to love and forgive.
He brought to us a promise
that we may eternally live.
There is a kingdom full of glory,
not yet known to man.
In order to give you this,
He must sacrifice His Lamb.
They crucified our Jesus,
as the King of the Jews.
He was the Lord of the world,
yet, not very many knew.
God's Plan was set in motion.
Jesus done all that He could do.
He stretched out His loving arms,
"My purpose here is thru."
This world is now open
for an unconditional love.
It is sent for you and I
thru the Lamb of God above...
Try to always remember,
when things get tough to bare,
you have a light and refuge
thru Jesus Christ in prayer!
