Three Words

Dictionary’s list the words

we speak from a to z.

The greatest of them all

can be narrowed down to three.

 

They do not speak of money,

or things that bring us wealth.

They don’t come from a doctor,

announcing our good health.

 

One may think, “I Love You”

are the words I’m speaking of.

These three words come close,

because they also speak of love.

 

Three beautiful, simple words.

Music to my ears.

Words of joy and comfort

that take away my fears.

 

Of every combination

of words, heard or read;

“He Is Risen”, are by far

the greatest ever said!

    Good day Ron

    May I use your poem for two things.

    One is to assist someone with a personal loss – so this would be part of the obituary.
    Another for the people within my church – http://godfirstchristchurch.org/

      Hi Pastor John,
      Yes, you may use this poem, as well as any of my others in your ministry. My name must remain as author, and they cannot be sold.

      thank you for asking.

      Ron
