Poem Ezra

While God's holy people, under Persia's reign,

A scribe named Ezra, to his people came

To return to Jerusalem, his cherished land,

With a sacred mission, from the King's own hand.

With the King's letter safe, in his satchel tight,

Ezra journeyed on, in God's guiding light.

He was a learned man, in the Laws of Moses,

To teach his people, he knew what king proposes.

In the midst of ruins, and hearts filled with strife,

Ezra shared God's word, breathed back to life.

He read aloud, from the Book so revered,

The people they wept, as the LORD they feared.

"Repent," cried Ezra, "for you have strayed,

In foreign marriages, your heritage betrayed."

With heavy hearts, they sought God's grace,

Promised to follow His ways, in every case.

The walls of Jerusalem, they did restore,

In their hearts, God's laws they bore.

A new beginning, in this holy place,

Led by Ezra, saved by God's grace.

Through Ezra, we learn, in God's law, we should immerse,

His love and guidance, in our lives, we should disperse.

In the Book of Ezra, lessons are real,

For a God-centered life. that is the deal
