Poems by Royston

The Child of the past
These poem was written after I had seen the wonderful way in which Jesus had healed someone close to me from the damaging effects of Child Abuse.

Lost In The Crowd
Facing up to my part in the Crucifixion.

Morning Glory
At a time of restrictions and concern about Covid19 I found this lovely flower a lovely distraction uplifting my spirit with the wonder of creation. Each bloom only lasts a daySings its song and then passes away

Holding on to the moment that I came to Jesus
Reflecting upon how the disciples must have felt during and after their experience when Jesus was transfigured and comparing it to the first time I met Jesus

I too like Thomas have had my doubts
Reflecting upon the time Thomas expressed his doubts and the wonderful way in which it led to him declaring Jesus to be his Lord and hid God

A name so dear
Short reflection upon the wonderful name and character of Jesus

When words just fail
The lockdown caused be the Coronavirus has given me time and opportunity to spend more time with Jesus and to reflect upon His love and provision.

He’s alive!

Between Good Friday and Easter Sunday
I have tried to capture the shattered world of the disciples immediately after the crucifixion, but before they heard the glorious news of the resurrection of Jesus
