PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

God's Saving Grace is sovereign; having read and heard

the Gospel, my soul came to Jesus, though very

late---but received by Christ unto secure Salvation,

on a Sunday (nor did I tarry

that day):  my poems witness to the miracle that occurred

(despite the doubters' skeptic derogation),

when, going forward, they are signed with the appellation

that I sign here (no longer stalled any more):

J-9thxciv . . .

(and this is without further transformation).

On my tombstone place it to appear once more,

after my going forth to the Savior Whom I adore,

the Christ, in Whose Salvation

by Grace through Faith is my soul's chief exultation.

My life proceeds toward Heaven:  without hesitation.

Please mark my grave with the three-barred Cross;

please mark my grave with that sign of Orthodox Faith.

J-9thxciv, an Orthodox Christian
