A Christian understanding serves as a flashlight in a cave: You can see more. The attributes of Christ - truth, beauty, and goodness - shine forever and keep verses alive. That's why poems live on.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSongs continue to occupy my mind. I view most songs as poetry set to music.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI greatly admire people who write poems and songs. Some create both lyrics and music like embroidery, and their works greatly affect others.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI desired my favorite songwriters and poets to be in one book. I suspect someday Kris Kristofferson, Leonard Cohen, William Butler Yeats, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and many others will be best friends. They all toiled in God's vineyard, producing good fruit. I'm hoping this book gets published before they all pass, so they can enjoy this tribute to their fine wine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePoets and songwriters who speak to those searching for truth take time to admire beauty, and are uplifted by acts of goodness. Poetry and songs were meant to be enjoyed, recited, and sung throughout the day. One can experience encounters with God through such works. These show the best side of mankind.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGregg Tomusko lives in Broadview Heights, Ohio.
