Tom Zart Poems

It’s not a priest that gives us our freedom of religion
And it’s not a reporter that gives us our freedom of voice.
It’s not any judge, lawyer, politician, or teacher
But the blood of a soldier that has sacrificed by choice.
...

When Jesus commands “To Love Our Neighbors”
He’s preaching to serve others as our deeds are sown.
His life was an example how to love people
As we learn to survive relationships of our own.
...

I’m God’s most humble poet
Whose poems have meter and rhyme.
Stories of love, faith, hate, honor and duty,
Obedience, war, heroes, history and crime.
...

Patience is hard to learn, master and maintain
As life is fast and time is running out for all.
No one enjoys practicing patience as a trait
As Abraham at 100 had Isaac by God’s call.
...

Google has become a world of its own
As hearts and souls communicate and relate.
There’s always someone 24 hours night and day
To converse with, respond to or debate.
...

Blessed are those who hunger for love
Who learn life’s secret of abundance and need.
For they shall be satisfied by God Himself
As by faith they overcome shame, fear and greed.
...

The prize jewels of any nation
Are the philosophers of the heart.
How they think is universal
For it’s God who makes them so smart.
...

SEX

Where would we be without sex
Like coffee minus the sugar and cream.
As Adam was before he knew Eve
With no purpose to dream or scheme
...

There's no greater power on Earth
Than the love we get from our mothers.
They feel our fears within themselves
Far more than sisters or brothers.
...

GOD'S POETS

The prize jewels of any nation
Are the philosophers of the heart.
