Words of Hope
Inspirational and Religious Poetry

by Kathern Welsh

I had a TV Show on a small local TV station in Columbus, Ohio for over two years. It was called, "Words of Hope"!
I started doing the show when the Lord directed me to share my poetry and He opened the doors which enabled me to do this.
Now that we've moved to Florida, I want to share them over the Internet!
This is a Day the Lord has Made
I will rejoice and be glad in it!
Nature adorned herself today
with jewels so precious they couldn't stay
Her diamonds sparkled in shining sun
until the rays caused them to run

Enjoy each moment while you may
for like ice cold diamonds
they're soon away!
TIME
Time should be used to the fullest degree
not squandered or frittered away
You only get out what you dare to put in
so put forth full effort each day
Greet each rising sun with enthusiastic joy
treat each day as new unmodeled clay
Sculpture every minute into golden works of art
each hour, a guilded memory to stay!
Check out some of my paintings
JUST TWENTY FOUR HOURS
A day may be wasted and filled with regret
with nothing accomplished or gained
Twenty-four hours just frittered away
not one good memory retained
Let's take the same time and fill it with love
with sharing and lending a hand
Fill it with one deed, accomplished quite well
so proudly at days end, you'll stand.
HEAVENLY INSPIRATION
What heavenly inspiration
what answers to my prayers
What lightening of my burdens
and easing of my care
What knowledge has invaded
this erstwhile, feeble brain
What truths of heaven are instilled
such lifting of the pain
Such purpose now for being
I'm more than "passing through"
My works on earth will earn for me
whatever rewards are due.
