Hi everyone. I know in the past I've read many profiles of those who said they enjoy writing poems, christian themed or otherwise. I do as well occassionally so I was thinking this would be a great place to share them with others...all in good taste of course. I'll go first and would love to read some from others.
My poem is called Silly Math. I had written it to give to my wife after she gave birth to our second child in March of 2002.

SILLY MATH
Alone I walked, without a fuss.
Good times and bad times,
Just the two of us.
Good times and bad times,
Just the two of us.
Alone, that was, till you found me.
Fell in love, got married
And we became three.
Fell in love, got married
And we became three.
Two years went by and we wanted more.
Kendall Rae was born
And we became four.
Kendall Rae was born
And we became four.
And now to the hospital once again we'll drive.
Welcome, Grant Joseph!
Now we are five.
Welcome, Grant Joseph!
Now we are five.
"Whoa!"
"Wait a minute!" you say, "Your numbers don't jive."
"Don't you mean four",
"When you had said five?"
"Wait a minute!" you say, "Your numbers don't jive."
"Don't you mean four",
"When you had said five?"
Now hold on a sec.
Before any judgement is passed,
Let me explain
My silly math.
Before any judgement is passed,
Let me explain
My silly math.
What you think as three, is actually four,
'Cause whatever you number,
Just add one more.
'Cause whatever you number,
Just add one more.
No matter what happens in this wonderful life.
The One who'll be there
Is Jesus Christ.
The One who'll be there
Is Jesus Christ.
Many things may change from January to December,
But it's His love, unchanging,
That endures forever.
But it's His love, unchanging,
That endures forever.
Hope you guys enjoyed it. I've got more I'll share eventually, but would really love to hear from all of you!
