Raymond A. Foss Poems

A grandfather’s perspective, worthy of reflection
the world, so coarse, so raw, so dangerous
So much more, human made hazards
where do we fit, as parents, as the church
In the breach, to save our children
more important than others
a safe place for God’s children
within these walls, within our embrace
the church is called at times like these
lead us through this dark valley,
through the waters
to that promised land,
that lush green valley
all the way home
