Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

He called it holy failure,
the moments of the disciples
failing to catch fish,
believing in the word of Jesus
doing his will, doing what he said
casting their nets again, unlikely results
from the suggestion of the carpenter
telling fisherman how to fish
reaping rewards, when their faith
overcame their doubts
