My Poem: We are waiting for you

We are waiting for you

We are waiting for you

We love you

We saw you among millions, billions of people

And We cared.

We shared your trials and your search for shelter.

We saw you behind a crumbling wall,

We saw you in an empty mall.

We care and We share Our insights with you.

Of starting fresh a fulfilling life.

Come take a bath, wash off the stain

Of dirt, deceit and blood that was shed.

Ask for forgiveness, ask for relief.

Ask for an income, you're not a thief.

Believe, believe, believe.

Believe in a new life, believe in the Son

Believe in the daylight, believe in the Word

The Spirit  has heard your sighing,

The Spirit has heard the lying

The Peaceful One has known it all.

Come take His life and

Live and thrive.

We are waiting for you and We love you

And We care.

My Poem: The Painting of Bart Kwint

Blooming Bright by Bart Kwint

The painting of Bart Kwint

Blooming bright, blooming bright

blooming brightly bright.

Blooming in a vase, blooming on the wall

flowers flourishing kind and colorful,

for me, for all, for all!

The war is over, the castle is gone,

it looks tall,

my house, with a little art print and an original

on its way to spectators.  Not spectacular rather

kind,  sweet, homely, almost insignificant

but so familiar. Factory, prison, castle,

House of the Lord, small house, hospital:

painted flowers good for all!

No violence but violet, no hate but paint.

If war returns, reiterates, reoccurs, it is only an interval

between two lilies,  in case you should ask...

A Van Gogh for five bucks,

and an original bright blooming by Bart.

Go for it, be simply smart.

Look at flowers, think of a mansion full of art

as a little home to be homesick for.

Blooming bright, blooming bright,

beyond the unnatural nasty night,

lovely little light flowers.
