Israeli soldier looking for salvation huh! I wonder what terms of reference he will need to apply for that.
Interesting read. The artwork is very good too.

You would think that someone walking in Jesus' footsteps would be for peace, but I suppose peace is hard to accomplish between Israelis and Palestinians. There has been much turmoil between them. It is ironic that it is near the pathways that Jesus once walked.

No offense taken, with this current theme of war. How true they cannot agree, religious differences are far to great, I fear. Unrest makes them weary, and your last line created such a strong image
thanks Mike,
karen

    it is sad. I have read most of the major religions and if you take the names out they sure sound the same for the most part at least as far as love each other and all of that. thank you and glad you liked this. mike

This is a very different from your last post. (This indicates talent) Your subject is targeted and well defined. Your last two lines are haunting and make the reader think. God-worn, War-torn. I believe you capture the doom exactly. Good presentation. Another good write. Lynda

    oh thank you. sometimes I really do think before I write and have something in mind beforehand. usually I try to start connecting as I go and then tie it up at the end. god that sounds so insane. what I mean is yes a very constructed thought process leading to a calculated.....something like that. mike

    At this time I encourage you to keep up with both prose and poetry. Eventually all writers chose one or the other but I think it broadens the talent if you continue with both. Prose is your strength, poetry the learning curve. You do well in both. This again is just pure talent.

Excellent and thought provoking as usual. Wouldn't it be wonderful if all the fighting would stop.. The living God .. if only people knew , the blood of Jesus heals all wounds. Have a good night.. tired..

Thank you Michael for sharing this with your fans, myself and other readers. Then an excellent way of formulating this style of poetry whereas your rhyming couplets rhythm and tempo all are written so well that it makes it very easy for me to understand, read and enjoy this poem. I like the way you convey the past with the present and is ever-growing war in the Middle East. You have a good one Michael and God bless.

So many wars are fought in God's name. I think when they end up before him, he will smack them all for doing all these bad things. This is a well written poem.
