Hanging out with my friends the Heyworths today. Aleah (11),Josh and Jessica's oldest daugther is going to post a poem she wrote about God. Thanks Aleah!
KING OF ALL CREATURES
The snake is the king of the deserts and sand,
Where mice and rat meals are always at hand.
He slithers around saying “I’m the king here,”
“Feel the sting of my poison if you come too near”
The elephant's the king of the grasslands and fields,
He eats vegetarian for all of his meals.
By lifting his trunk up high in the air,
He’s telling the animals “you'd better beware.”
The lion's the king of the jungle green,
He’ll always lick the platter clean.
His mighty roar gives it away…
It is never time to play.
So the bee might be king of the flowers,
The ant the king of the hill.
But God is king of all creatures
And he loves us still.

Aleah, you are a lovely writer! What a thoughtful poem and your last two lines say it all!
I know you walk with Jesus and our church is blessed to know such a fine young lady as you!
What a great poem... We will be looking for more poetic writings from Aleah!!
