You see a new face now- Or should I say an old one? This one is more recent Unlike the dashing bold one. But it's a more accurate Reflection of the current me, The 50 year old gentleman That I've become to be. This reflects the march of time That all of us partake, We have our glamours moments But them we soon forsake For we live in the real world That moves full steam ahead, Yesterday we were just born Tommorow we may be dead. We are on a Spiritual Journey And we can't just stand still. To Judgment day we're headed We must seek the Father's will. It's not what's on the outside- But that that's found within That will go to determine If we lose or win. May I be an object lesson Of what you to must face, In this ever changing world We e'er must find our place. For we too are changing In our visage from young to old, But the most important Are the changes in our Souls. We can be transformed to His Image Despite our ourward frame, From glory unto glory In His most Powerful name. I'm glad you see now see my likeness But more importantly, may you see this, I'm changing to be more like Him And in the likeness that is His. God Bless you all, My dear friends at Passions, David WOW- another day of life-and here among friends! Ain't God Grand! |

This was a blessing. Thanks for sharing this. It reminded me of the scripture which says "All flesh is grass. And the glory of man as the flower of the grass. The grass withers and the flower thereof falls away, but the word of the Lord endures forever. - and this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you." God bless you. |

Dear David: now there's the face I know! I think the poem to go with it is perfect. Your words sing with the wisdom God teaches us. His grace that dwells in our hearts and souls, is who we really are, and might I add that you have aged with dignity and you're still a handsome poet in my book! Love, Sis Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

How nice to know you're not really the 18 year old the former picture implied.  I appreciate your poem and realistically, you look more dignified in this update. Rae |

 I do see a certain glow in your face and I feel a certain submission in your words that certainly suggests His presence in your life... Thanks for sharing His image with us today, Bob <>< |

David, How'd I miss this gem? Wow, so glad I found it tonight. I like the new picture by the way. Yes, we are all on the same Spiritual Journey and you have captured it perfectly here. Nice writing! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

David, Your are truely an inspiration to remind us all that we should always give GOD the glory. Thank you for all your praises through poetic verse. And yes we all change as the years keep coming and coming and coming. I know 60 seconds = 1 minute; 60 minutes = 1 hour 24 hours = 1 day; 365 days = 1 year And I realize that as each year passes, I get older and older. However, the years are coming at me at such a great velocity, I am inclined to raise my hands to heaven and demand a recount. Melton |
