You never know when God's going to give you a poem, or a song, or a little piece of poetry. Over the years, I've written mine down. Sometimes in books, other times on little scraps of paper, which I have kept fastidiously.
I invite you to do the same. Write yours down! Keep them forever (on the little scraps of paper that you scribbled them on.) Someone close to you will appreciate them one day. Perhaps you will appreciate these. Enjoy! - Sharon

Christian Poems by Sharon
Upon the Water
by Sharon Chatwell ©2006
"Drown!" the devil screeches,
My parents urge me, "Swim!"
But Jesus says to leave the boat,
And simply "Come" to Him.
The waves of Life crash all around,
And would swamp a son or daughter,
But Jesus bids us come with Him,
And walk upon the water.
Inside Out
By Sharon Chatwell ©2004
GOD works in such mysterious ways,
His will to bring about,
While we would change from outside in,
GOD works from inside out.
Words in the Sand
By Sharon Jennings Chatwell ©1976
Tell your theme to the wind my child,
And the walls will hinder its journey.
Write your name on the walls of the world,
And the walls will crumble to sand.
Write your words in the sand my child,
And the wind shall blow it away
And time shall forget you as easily...
But inscribe His love in the hearts of men,
And your thoughts shall remain forever.
Poem for the Unbeliever
By Sharon Jennings Chatwell ©1976
Is life so long,
Or love so short,
You think it cannot be,
That when a man has lived a life,
There's still eternity?
On a Personal Note...
Thanks for visiting my Christian Poems page. I hope you like my little poems. If you do, please write and tell me.
I won an award once for the one called "Words in the Sand." No need telling you which award, because you would have NEVER heard of it.
At any rate, thanks for visiting my little page. I hope my poems help you, or inspire you, or lead you closer to God. I will add more as we go along.
With love in Christ,
Sharon
