[bodytext] => Athens… a beautiful city of terraces and olives, Today I took my time and strolled In search of beauty, knowledge old I found from more than passing glance That you are those who take no chance You seek to leave no stone unturned To put in practice what you learn I noticed something fairly odd A tribute “to an unknown god” A true opportunity here… You worship whom you do not know Yet it is He I've come to show The truth of who He is, I bring In Him we move and have our being And toward Him He would have us grope To give us life, to give us hope Your poets say, His children we As from creation we shall be If we are His children, then We truly shouldn't think of Him As gold, as silver, precious stone True worship is for Him alone He winked at times your ignorance spent But now commands all to repent For He has rightly fixed a day To judge the world His righteous way His only Son, His chosen Man, His choice before the world began Will sit upon the judgment seat And truth and justice he will mete How will we see this come to pass? When time's end will come at last? He proved the truth in what He said By raising this Man from the dead © 2004 G. Rafferty Based on Acts 17: The apostle Paul and his dialogue with the men of Athens.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
