Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Following his call, the urging
deep within him
throwing starfish back into the ocean
so many starfish, miles of beach
saving those he can, one at a time

We are on the beach,
the world so vast, so many do not know
the indwelling Spirit, the message of Christ
gently cast the starfish
into the living waters
saving one at a time
accepting the grace of God
the ocean of His love
